27. Waves of Devotion

1 A glorious blessing bestowed upon me,
Salvation, the joy of my heart;
The theme of my song and forever shall be,
To me Thy rich graces impart.

Refrain:
The waves of devotion rebound in my soul,
And sparkle so bright in the sun;
I drink of that fountain, oh, glory, I’m whole!
My Eden on earth has begun.

2 Salvation, oh, glory! its rapture I feel—
A current of heavenly bliss;
My soul is delighted, I cannot conceal
The deep-seated joy I possess. [Refrain]

3 My pathway is bright as the cloudless noonday,
My peace like a river that flows;
Upon me such blessings are showered alway,
Which grace in profusion bestows. [Refrain]

4 More precious, more priceless, than rubies of earth
His fullness of infinite love;
Transported, communing with Jesus, what worth!
I’m feasting with Him from above. [Refrain]
