130. Happy in the Love of Jesus

1 Bright is the daystar shining for me,
Happy in the love of Jesus;
Now from my bondage grace makes me free,
Happy in the love of Jesus.

Chorus:
Praise from my full heart loudly shall ring,
Born of the Spirit, child of a King;
Heir to His glory, now will I sing,—
Happy in the love of Jesus.

2 He has redeem'd me, I am His own,
Happy in the love of Jesus;
Drawn by His mercy near to His throne,
Happy in the love of Jesus. [Chorus]

3 How I am honor'd, how I am blest,
Happy in the love of Jesus;
Under His banner sweetly I rest,
Happy in the love of Jesus. [Chorus]

4 Firm is my anchor, steadfast and sure,
Happy in the love of Jesus;
All things with patience I can endure,
Happy in the love of Jesus. [Chorus]
