My Heart rejoices in Thy name
My heart rejoices in Thy Name,
My God, my help, my trust;
Thou hast preserved my face from shame,
Mine honor from the dust.
�My life is spent with grief,� I cried,
�My years consumed in groans,
My strength decays, mine eyes are dried,
And sorrow wastes my bones.�
Among mine enemies my name
Was a mere proverb grown,
While to my neighbors I became
Forgotten and unknown.
Slander and fear on every side
Seized and beset me round
I to the throne of grace applied,
And speedy rescue found.
How great deliverance Thou hast wrought
Before the sons of men!
The lying lips to silence brought,
And made their boastings vain!
Thy children from the strife of tongues
Shall Thy pavilion hide;
Guard them from infamy and wrongs,
And crush the sons of pride.
Within Thy secret presence, Lord,
Let me forever dwell;
No fenc�d city, walled and barred,
Secures a saint so well.
And even I shall conquer
In Jesus� Name and might;
Tho� weak and faint, still as a saint
I�ll in the haven anchor,
Sweet haven of delight.
Yea, even I shall conquer
In Jesus� Name and might.
