There Is Joy In My Soul Today

Author: George W. Lyon Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: There is joy within my soul today Refrain First Line: There is joy, there is joy Lyrics: 1 There is joy within my soul today, And my life is filled with wondrous light; From the throne of Him who reigns above, Cometh peace that makes my pathway bright. Refrain: There is joy, there is joy, There is joy within my soul today; There is joy, there is sweetest joy, There is joy within my soul today. 2 Thro’ the clouds that many times arise, O’er the billows of life’s restless sea, Shines the glory of the Savior’s face, As a blessèd beacon light for me. [Refrain] 3 So I gladly trust and press along, In my journey to the goal above, Shielded by His arm from day to day, Cheered by His sweet presence and His love. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [There is joy within my soul today] Text Sources: The Best Gospel Songs and Their Composers (Dalton, GA: A. J. Showalter Company, 1904)
