Cântăre Everlasting Joy

1. Can the spirit of a mortal

Live beyond the reach of trouble?

Knowing not a painful struggle,

Ever joyful in the Lord?



R: Glory to my Savior’s name!

Walking on His holy plane

Nothing can my peace disturb,

Free and happy as a bird,

Singing joyful praise evermore.



2. He who is our great salvation,

And our high and strong munition

Is to us a full fruition

Of His peace and endless joy.



3. I no trouble and no sorrow

See today, nor will I borrow

Gloomy visions for the morrow;

In my Jesus all is bright.



4. To my soul all grace is given,

And all gloom afar is driven,

Walking in the light of heaven,

All is everlasting peace.



5. Jesus bids be joyful ever;

He Himself, the wondrous Giver,

Flows within a constant river,

And my spirit must rejoice.
