Fullness Of Joy

by M. L. Herr

'Tis sweet in the persence of Jesus to dwell,
Thro' troubles and trials annoy,
To constantly feel His approval and smile:
In this there is fullness of joy!

Abundently furnished with grace for our needs,
When Satan attempts to decoy,
Christ flies to our rescue - to victory leads:
In this there s fullness of joy!

To work for our Lord is a privilege rare,
Each moment of time to employ;
Co-reapers with Him in the harvest to share:
In this there is fullness of joy!

O glorious prospect— if faithful till death—
Of bliss that no foe can destroy!
Made one with the Bride-groom, all nations to bless:
In this there is fullness of joy!

Chorus

Fullness of joy! yes, fullness of joy!
Serving our Master with hearts full of joy!
Soon we will finish our work here below,
With fullness of joy unto Him we shall go!
