MY HEART IS THRILLED
 
My heart is thrilled with that rapturous thought
Jesus is coming again
It makes my steps lighter and lighter each day
Even though I know not but when
My faith in my Master it strengthens me so
He lives! He lives today
I know Him as personal Savior and Lord
One day it’s up and away
 
The joy it is flowing and living within
How deep the wells of His praise
He’s put a new song into my heart
T’is there till the end of my days
His Word how I love it, I love it I say
Daily there treasure I find
He’s living water and bread of life to my soul
In nothing am I left behind
 
Surrounded with love, the love of the Master
Friend of this sinner is He
That love of God so great and wondrous
What love of the Savior for me
In prayer in my closet, the prayer of my heart
Lord help me some lost one to win
I follow the Master in seeking for sinners
He only can save them from sin
 
New life in Jesus what change He can bring
New creatures in Christ now are we
With So Great Salvation what news for all nations
Come unto Him and be free!
His blood shed for sinners a crimson foundation
There at the foot of the cross
He’s been lifted up, look now unto Him
Look now! Or eternal loss.
