Jubilate ‎#76

76. Truth, Love and Joy

1 In the Book of God, we see His truth,
Wonderful truth, wonderful truth!
Blessed guidance for the path of youth;
Let us receive it in the heart,
And from all evil ways depart.

Refrain:
O what a word of blessing!
O what a word of pow’r,
Help while we’re onward pressing,
Comfort for ev’ry hour;
O what a word of counsel,
Given with grace divine;
Trusting forever, doubting never,
Joy in our souls will shine.

2 God so loved the world His Son He gave,
Wonderful love, wonderful love!
Like a shepherd, He will seek and save;
Beautiful promise of our King,
Making the contrite spirit sing. [Refrain]

3 He will go with us through sun and show’r,
Wonderful joy, wonderful joy!
Filling ev’ry need of ev’ry hour;
Smiling again His word to hear,
Faith is dispelling all our fear. [Refrain]
