Sweet is the joy
You place in my heart,
Yes, sweet is the joy
From the very start,

Lovely the song
I hear ever playing,
Delightful the words
You are ever saying,



Beautiful the vistas
I see before me,
Wonderful the path
You pave to eternity.

Yes, sweet and lovely,
Delightful and true,
Such are the things
I find in You.



So, my Lord Jesus,
Take now my hand,
Lead me on the path
To Your promised land.

Never let me go,
Stay always by my side,
Allow me in Your heart
To eternally abide.



For surely all good
Comes from above,
Yes, surely all good
Grows from Your love.

Beautiful are my vistas,
Lovely is all I see,
Because You, sweet Jesus,
Are here with me.



Day after day
I will keep on praying,
As lovely is the song
You are playing.

Yes, sweet is the joy
You place in my heart..
So from You, Lord Jesus,
I will never part!
