1. I'm rejoicing night and day

I'm rejoicing night and day As I walk the pilgrim way, For the hand of God in all my life I see, And the reason of my bliss; Yes, the secret all is this: That the comforter abides With me He abides… he abides… Hallelujah, he abides with me! I am rejoicing night and day, As I walk the narrow way, For the comforter abides with me

Once my heart was full of sin, Once I had no peace within Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree, Then I fell down at his feet, And there came a peace so sweet Now the comforter abides with me.

He is with me everywhere, And he knows my every care, I'm as happy as a bird and just as free For the spirit has control, Jesus satisfies my soul, Since the comforter abides with me.

There's no thirsting for the things Of the world - they've taken wings; Long ago I gave them up, and instantly; All my night was turned to day, All my burdens rolled away, Now the comforter abides with me.
