And a peace that from you never will depart;
Walk the straight and narrow way,
Live for Jesus ev'ry 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 ev'rywhere you go;
He will keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
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. (Chorus)
3 You will meet with trials as you journey home;
Grace sufficient He will give to overcome;
Tho' unseen by mortal eye,
He is with you ever nigh,
And He’ll keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart. (Chorus)
4 Let your life speak well of Jesus ev'ry day;
Own His right to ev'ry 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. (Chorus) Topics: Admonition; Admonition Languages: English Tune Title: [You may have the joy-bells ringing in your heart]
