Hymn: Within my heart a praise o'erflowing

Within my heart a praise o'erflowing

Within my heart a praise o'erflowing
'Tis the gracious Lord, my song;
There never was a song so excellent;
Heaven's joys to me belong.

In my heart there springs a melody,
The sweetest melody, a song so heavenly,
In my heart there springs a melody,
There springs a melody of love.

O wondrous love, the Lord has saved me,
Granting me new life and joy;
Amazing grace! He's living now in me;
Grace and love I now enjoy.
O light of life, my Lord now leads me.
Step by step this song I raise;
O perfect peace, Christ now abides in me,
Welling up in psalms of praise.
O what release! I shall be raptured,
Where the vict'ry song we'll sing;
O what an honor, reigning with the Lord;
Angels' celebrations ring.
The Holy City, what a blessing!
Living water flowing free,
The tree of life with fruits abundant, sweet,
Satisfy eternally.
