My Soul is Filled With Singing

Author: W. C. Martin Hymnal: Alexander's New Revival Hymns #18 (1922) First Line: Before I found my Saviour Lyrics: 1 Before I found my Saviour, I had a load of care; No comfort in my sorrow, No help my yoke to bear; But now that I know Jesus, And all my cares are gone, My soul is fill’d with singing, And my lips are fill’d with song. Refrain: My soul is fill’d with singing, My days are bright with love; I’m happy here, and waiting For the perfect bliss above. 2 Since I have found the Saviour, My heart is free and light; My days no more are dreary, No sadness comes with night; But joy is mine unceasing, And sunshine floods my way; I’m on the road to heaven, And to everlasting day. [Refrain] 3 I’m ever looking homeward, Where perfect bliss awaits, Where crowns await our coming, Beyond the pearly gates; My heart is fill’d with longing To pass those portals fair, And greet the friends and angels Who await my coming there. [Refrain] Scripture: Isaiah 35:2 Languages: English Tune Title: [Before I found my Saviour]
