The joy of my salvation
119  (509)

The joy of my salvation
Is the joy of knowing You,
Your sweet presence near to me
Is the strength that holds me true.

When You're near I see Your hand
In so many little things,
And each moment that I share with You 
Helps my faith grow bigger wings.

That feeling when You're near, Lord,
I want nothing to destroy,
And I'll not flirt with any sin
That would take away my joy.

When You're near I'm confident
That I'm following Your Son,
And the things I ask I know You'll grant 
Because our hearts are one.

When You're near I see so clear
What things are right and wrong,
And that makes me glad, for I'd not do 
Anything to grieve Your Son.
