You May Have the Joy-Bells
J. Edward Ruark • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 16:11
Verse 1
You may have the joy-bells ringing in your heart, And a peace that from you never will depart; Walk the straight and narrow way, Live for Jesus every day, He will keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
Chorus
Joy-bells ringing in your heart, Joy-bells ringing in your heart; Take the Savior here below With you everywhere you go; He will keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
Verse 2
Love of Jesus in its fullness you may know; And this love to those around you sweetly show; Words of kindness always say; Deeds of mercy do each day, Then He’ll keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
Verse 3
You will meet with trials as you journey home; Grace sufficient He will give to overcome; Though unseen by mortal eye, He is with you ever nigh, And He’ll keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
Verse 4
Let your life speak well of Jesus every day; Own His right to every service you can pay; Sinners you can help to win If your life is pure and clean, And you keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
