Joy and Consolation

Composer: Arthur Henry, 1913

O the joy and con­so­la­tion

Jesus of­fers thro’ sal­va­tion

Since a ran­som for our sins He free­ly died

That we might some day be giv­en

Our re­ward with an­gels in Heav­en

And in glad­ness nev­er end­ing there abide!

Yes

the Sav­ior of­fers joy and con­so­la­tion

And a home with­in the glo­ri­ous man­sions for aye;

If you will no long­er wan­der

But ac­cept His love and sal­va­tion

He will free­ly

He will free­ly bless to­day.

O the joy and con­so­la­tion

To be free from con­dem­na­tion

Thro’ our Sav­ior

our blest Lord and friend so dear;

If you would now be pos­sess­ing

Jesus and His ev­ery bless­ing

Only trust Him

on­ly trust Him: He is near.

O ’tis free to ev­ery na­tion

Without price or com­pen­sa­tion

And He’s call­ing

oh! He calls you now to come;

Only take Him as your Sav­ior

Sharing in His won­der­ful favor

And for­ev­er

yes

for­ev­er

dwell at home.
