Author: J. Edw. Ruark Hymnal: Victory Songs #69 (1920) First Line: You may have the joybells ringing in your heart Refrain First Line: Joybells ringing in your heart Lyrics: 1 You may have the joybells ringing in your heart, And a peace that from you never will depart; Walk the straight and narrow way, Live for Jesus ev'ry day, He will keep the joybells ringing in your heart. Chorus: Joybells ringing in your heart, Joybells ringing in your heart; Take the Savior here below, With you ev'rywhere you go, He will keep the joybells ringing in your heart. 2 Love of Jesus in its fullness you may know, And this love to those around you sweetly show; Words of kindness always say, Deeds of mercy do each day, Then He’ll keep the joybells ringing in your heart. [Chorus] 3 You will meet with trials as you journey home, Grace sufficient He will give to overcome; Tho' unseen by mortal eye, He is with you ever nigh, And He’ll keep the joybells ringing in your heart. [Chorus] 4 Let your life speak well of Jesus ev'ry day; Own His right to ev'ry service you can pay; Sinners you can help to win If your life is pure and clean, And you keep the joybells ringing in your heart. [Chorus] Topics: Joy; Petition and Prayer Languages: English Tune Title: [You may have the joybells ringing in your heart]
