There Is Joy in the Lord

Barney Elliott Warren • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 35:9

Verse 1

I will sing hal­le­lu­jah, for there’s joy in the Lord, And He fills my heart with rap­ture as I rest on His word; I will trust in His pro­mise, I will shout “I am free”; In my bless­èd lov­ing Sav­ior I have sweet vic­to­ry.

Chorus

There is joy in the Lord, there is joy in the Lord; Hallelujah, glo­ry, glo­ry, there is joy in the Lord. There is joy in the Lord, there is joy in the Lord; Hallelujah, glo­ry, glo­ry, there is joy in the Lord

Verse 2

I will live for the Sav­ior, I am His ev­er­more, I am rest­ing in His fa­vor, I am safe and se­cure; For the light shin­ing bright­er on my path ev­ery day, Cheers my hap­py soul with rap­ture as I walk in the way.

Chorus

There is joy in the Lord, there is joy in the Lord; Hallelujah, glo­ry, glo­ry, there is joy in the Lord. There is joy in the Lord, there is joy in the Lord; Hallelujah, glo­ry, glo­ry, there is joy in the Lord

Verse 3

When I reach Hea­ven’s por­tals in that land of the blest, I shall sing with ho­ly angels of that rest, hap­py rest; I shall dwell there for­ev­er with my Lord and my king, And with ev­er­last­ing prais­es make those high arch­es ring.

Chorus

There is joy in the Lord, there is joy in the Lord; Hallelujah, glo­ry, glo­ry, there is joy in the Lord. There is joy in the Lord, there is joy in the Lord; Hallelujah, glo­ry, glo­ry, there is joy in the Lord
