MHB 419 – HAPPY are they, they that love God,

Methodist-Hymns-419

1:  HAPPY are they, they that love God,
Whose hearts have Christ confest,
Who by His cross have found their life,
And ’neath His yoke their rest.

2:  Glad is the praise, sweet are the songs,
When they together sing;
And strong the prayers that bow the ear
Of heaven’s eternal King.

3:  Christ to their homes giveth His peace,
And makes their loves His own;
But ah, what tares the evil one
Hath in His garden sown.

4:  Sad  were our lot, evil this earth,
Did not its sorrows prove
The path whereby the sheep may find
The fold of Jesus’ love.

5:  Then shall they know, they that love Him,
How all their pain is good;
And death itself cannot unbind
Their happy brotherhood.
