Joyfully, Joyfully

Author: Mrs. Sharpless Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Oh, joyfully, joyfully, onward we go Lyrics: 1 Oh, joyfully, joyfully, onward we go; We see not our path, but our Leader we know; And where'er he may guide us, thro' shadow or sun. Ever joyfully, joyfully follow we on. Chorus: Joyfully, joyfully, forward we go, Joyfully leaving all sorrow below; Onward and upward, tho' Satan assail; Joyfully onward, thro' Christ we'll prevail. 2 Though trials assail us, and dangers affright, And nearer, still nearer, comes death's awful night; Yet what shall dismay us, when close at our side, Stands he who can help us, our Saviour and Guide. [Chorus] 3 Then onward, still onward, thro' life's varied track, In hope we press on, nor look mournfully back; With out Saviour beside us to point out our way, We'll joyfully speed us thro' life's little day. [Chorus] Scripture: Romans 5:2 Used With Tune: [Oh, joyfully, joyfully, onward we go]

Philadelphia, PA, 1921) received his musical training from his father and several other private teachers. A carpenter by trade, he engaged in the furniture business from 1862 to 1878. He left that profession to dedicate his life to music, serving as music director at Grace Methodist Church in Philadelphia. Kirkpatrick compiled some one hundred gospel song collections; his first, Devotional Melodies (1859), was published when he was only twenty-one years old. Many of these collections were first published by the John Hood Company and later by Kirkpatrick's own Praise Publishing Company, both in Philadelphia. Bert Polman
