1 Speak, dear Lord, let me hear thy sweet voice,
Drawing my spirit still closer to thee;
Now by faith let me see the kind smile of thy love,
Shining clearer and brighter on me.

Refrain:
‘Tis joy, joy, heavenly joy!
The blest holy Dove e’er brings from above;
‘Tis joy, joy, heavenly joy!
That’s shed by the spirit of love.

2 Fill me now with thy peace, blessed Lord,
So shall I ever thy goodness adore;
More like thee, Savior dear, may I grow day by day,
Till thy image I bear evermore. [Refrain]

3 Fruits of grace in my life shall abound,
Sweeter than perfume of lily or rose;
Pouring joy, like a fount, on the hearts all around,
Until they on thy bosom repose. [Refrain]
