Indwelling

lyricist: Isabel Jones, 1896
Composer: Mark Jones

Joy of joys! the heav’nly king­dom

Is with­in the soul of man;

Blessèd truth

so grand

in­spir­ing

One with God’s eter­nal plan!

Sing glad prais­es

sing glad prais­es

Sing glad prais­es ev­er­more

Sing glad prais­es

sing glad prais­es

Sing glad prais­es ev­er­more.

Truth of truths! the Christ

the Sav­ior

Is the light that light­eth all;

This the wis­dom

true

un­chang­ing

Giv’n to save from er­ror’s thrall;

Seek its guid­ance

seek its guid­ance

Seek its guid­ance ev­er­more

Seek its guid­ance

seek its guid­ance

Seek its guid­ance ev­er­more.

Peace of peace I leave now with you

Not an out­ward peace I give

Peace that springs from the Eter­nal;

In that peace thou’lt tru­ly live.

Life in­dwell­ing

life in­dwell­ing

In the pro­mised Com­fort­er;

Life in­dwell­ing

life in­dwell­ing

In the pro­mised Com­fort­er.
