O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

All That Fills My Heart With Joy

Lyrics
My life's best delight and pleasure
Is yon heaven, God's own throne!
And my greatest prize and treasure
Is my Saviour, God's own Son!
All that fills my heart with joy
Waits in glory there on high

Others may find satisfaction
In the greed for worldly gain;
Heav'n alone is my attraction
Close to Jesus I'll remain!
Earthly riches pass and fail,
Jesus and His realm prevail.

Nowhere are there greater treasures
Than in Jesus Christ I find.
All the earthly joys and pleasures
Only burden heart and mind.
Just to call the Lord my own,
Satifies my soul alone.

Though I lived a thousand seasons,
Worldly joys would not endure;
But to live one day for Jesus
Would more happiness secure.
In the highest ranks they stand
Who attain to God's right hand.

When the Word of Christ, the Faithful
Finally shall be fulfilled,
Then His own will come rejoicing,
Tears and crying shall be stilled.
Then His glory shall appear,
Unto all both far and near.

Share then, Lord, to me the rapture
That with Thee I may abide!
Be my Guide, my Sun of splendor
That will never lose its light!
Draw me wholly unto Thee,
Evermore with Thee to be.
