1.

When the Lord’s elect the joy of hope experience,
Songs of praise fill our days.
Then there’s vict’ry and rejoicing, with a jub’lant sound;
Living waters we have found.

Chorus:

Think that God will do a miracle within us!
Who can comprehend His majesty and pow’r?
Think that you and I will be on life’s way transformed and free,
As it’s written—and no doubts have we!

2.

Things that happen, be they good or bad, won’t sway me.
Through them all, big or small,
I will walk upon the way of life and victory.
I have faith that this shall be!

3.

’Tis so happy in the home when there is vict’ry!
We’re no more cross or sore.
Filled with thankfulness and patience, nothing troubling—
There’s a new and blessed ring.

4.

Open wide your heart; receive God’s blessed goodness—
Give your all for this call.
O you never will regret it; there’s such joy in store.
You’ll desire more and more.
