Author: T. O. Chisholm Hymnal: The Best of All #259 (1910) First Line: My soul is glad today Refrain First Line: My heart is overflowing with His love Lyrics: 1 My soul is glad today,
A joy within me springs,
A happy song of love and praise
My raptured spirit sings.
Refrain:
My heart is overflowing with his love,
With love and joy divine;
For God has taken all my sins away,
And perfect peace is mine.
2 No sky of deepest blue,
No sun with brightest beams,
Could make a day so fair as this
Whose glory o’er me streams. [Refrain]
3 No more may earthly things
My thought and love divide;
I’ve something better far than these,
And I am satisfied. [Refrain]
4 In vain may doubts molest,
In vain may fears assail,
My hope is anchored sure and fast
To that within the veil [Refrain]
5 O what a rest is mine!
What bliss to me is giv’n!
My being thrills with ecstasy—
A sweet foretaste of heave’n. [Refrain] Tune Title: [My soul is glad today]
Overflowing With His Love
