You May Have the Joy-Bells | J. Edward Ruark.........Lyrics

1. You may have the joy-bells ringing in your heart,
   And a peace that from you never will depart;
   Walk the straight and narrow way,
   Live for Jesus every day,
   He will keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
   • Refrain:
     Joy-bells ringing in your heart,
     Joy-bells ringing in your heart;
     Take the Savior here below
     With you everywhere you go;
     He will keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
2. Love of Jesus in its fullness you may know;
   And this love to those around you sweetly show;
   Words of kindness always say;
   Deeds of mercy do each day,
   Then He’ll keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
3. You will meet with trials as you journey home;
   Grace sufficient He will give to overcome;
   Though unseen by mortal eye,
   He is with you ever nigh,
   And He’ll keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
4. Let your life speak well of Jesus every day;
   Own His right to every service you can pay;
   Sinners you can help to win
   If your life is pure and clean,
   And you keep the joy-bells ringing in your heart.
