Song of Joy
“Clap your hands, all peoples! Shout to God with loud songs of joy!” Psalm 47:1
A song of joy
In my heart does play,
Lyrics of love
As I follow Your way.
Beautiful this song,
Precious the words,
Beating in my heart,
Singing with birds.
Trees and clouds
Join the celebration,
Together we dance
For the gift of salvation.
You are our Song,
You bring us delight,
You are our Sonshine,
Our Star in the night.
So for You, O Jesus,
We sing this song;
We rejoice in Your love,
Wide, deep and long.
Sweeter than life,
Than all we know,
Is this precious love
To us You do show.
You pour of Yourself,
You give us Your all,
You kiss with grace
All things, big and small.
Everything and everyone
Is touched by Your love:
To us it streams freely
From Your throne above.
So a song of joy
The entire earth does fill;
We sing of Your glory,
We delight in Your will.
The image of Your cross
Forever we do see,
There we see love
Ever so radiantly.
Precious is this gift,
This gift of salvation;
So to You, Lord Jesus,
We give adoration.
And a song of joy
In every heart does play,
Endless lyrics of love
As we follow Your way.
