1 Peter 1:7-8 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
[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:
Loving Christ brings rejoicing to your heart. Are you a rejoicing Christian?
You are a child of the King, and you have an inheritance coming to you some day. How wonderful it is to be His child!
This is the secret of the Christian life. When we love Him, everything else falls into place.
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.
