There is joy in my soul
For the Savior is mine
I am wearing the pledge
Of His Spirit divine;
Every promise by faith
Through His grace I may claim
Oh
His love passeth knowledge
All praise to His name.
There is joy in my soul
There is joy in my song
I am nearing the gates
Of the bright
shining throng;
And I list to the music
Of Eden so fair
Hallelujah to Jesus
I soon shall be there.
There is joy in my soul
That will never depart
My Redeemer has made
His abode in my heart;
From the tempter and sin
I am kept every hour
Oh
His love passeth knowledge
So great is its power.
There is joy in my soul
Though the clouds may arise
Yet the bow of His mercy
Ne’er fades from the skies;
I am standing by faith
Where the pure waters glide
Oh
His love passeth knowledge
So deep and so wide.
There is joy in my soul
There is rapture and rest
In my Savior and Lord
I am perfectly blest;
’Twill be only a step
Ere my feet press the shore
Then His love passeth knowledge
I’ll shout evermore.
