1 Bliss beyond compare,
which in Christ I share!
He’s my only joy and treasure;
tasteless is all worldly pleasure,
when in Christ I share
bliss beyond compare.

2 Jesus is my joy,
therefore blessed am I;
O his mercy is unbounded,
all my hope on him is grounded;
Jesus is my joy,
therefore blessed am I.

3 When the Lord appears,
this my spirit cheers;
when, his love to me revealing
he, the Sun of grace, with healing
in his beams appears,
this my spirit cheers.

4 Then all grief is drowned;
pure delight is found,
joy and peace in his salvation,
heav'nly bliss and consolation.
Ev'ry grief is drowned
where such bliss is found.
