Joy Unspeakable

1 Peter 1:8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:

Have we weathered the storms of life and seen God come through time and again?


If so, this ought to cause us to rejoice with that unspeakable joy and full of glory. 


Joy Unspeakable

________________


I have found His grace is all complete,    —   He supplieth every need;    —   While I sit and learn at Jesus’ feet,    —   I am free, yes, free indeed.


CHORUS:

It is joy unspeakable and full of glory,    —   Full of glory, full of glory;    —   It is joy unspeakable and full of glory,    —   Oh, the half has never yet been told.


I have found the pleasure I once craved,    —   It is joy and peace within;    —   What a wondrous blessing, I am saved  — From the awful gulf of sin. - - -


I have found that hope so bright and clear    —   Living in the realm of grace; — Oh, the Savior’s presence is so near, —   I can see His smiling face. - - -


I have found the joy no tongue can tell,    —   How its waves of glory roll;    —   It is like a great o’erflowing well,    —   Springing up within my soul. - - -
