#283How Happy Are They!
Hymn Display
1
How happy are they who their Savior obey, And have laid up their treasure above! Tongue cannot express the sweet comfort and peace Of a soul in its earliest love.
2
That comfort was mine when the favor divine I first found in the blood of the Lamb; When my heart first believed, what a joy I received, What a heaven in Jesus's name!
3
O the rapturous height of that holy delight Which I felt in the life-giving blood! Of my Savior possessed, I was perfectly blessed, As if filled with the fullness of God.
4
'Twas a heaven below my Redeemer to know, And the angels could do nothing more, Than to fall at his feet, and the story repeat, And the lover of sinners adore.
