Hymnal: The Book of Worship #239 (1867) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: My God, the spring of all my joys Lyrics: 1 My God, the spring of all my joys,
The life of my delights,
The glory of my brightest days,
And comfort of my nights!
2 In darkest shades, if He appear,
My dawning is begun,
He is my soul’s bright morning star,
And He my rising sun.
3 The opening heavens around me shine,
With beams of sacred bliss,
While Jesus shows His heart is mine,
And whispers, I am His!
4 My soul would leave this heavy clay
At that transporting word,
Run up with joy the shining way
T’embrace my dearest Lord.
5 Fearless of hell and ghastly death,
I’d break through every foe;
The wings of love and arms of faith
Should bear me conqueror through. Topics: Trust in God Languages: English
