By A Collection of Hymns

      5 5 9, 5 5 9.
      1 HOW happy are they
      Who the Saviour obey,
      And have laid up their treasure above!
      Tongue cannot express
      The sweet comfort and peace
      Of a soul in its earliest love.

      2 That comfort was mine,
      When the favour divine
      I first found in the blood of the Lamb;
      When my heart it believed,
      What a joy it received,
      What a heaven in Jesus's name!

      3 Jesus all the day long
      Was my joy and my song;
      O that all his salvation may see!
      He hath loved me, I cried,
      He hath suffered, and died,
      To redeem such a rebel as me.

      4 O the rapturous height
      Of the holy delight,
      Which I felt in the life-giving blood!
      Of my Saviour possessed
      I was perfectly blest,
      As if filled with the fulness of God.
