“Happy is that people ... in such a case.” Ps. 144. 15

1 O the happiness arising
  From the life of grace within,
  When the soul is realising
  Conquests over hell and sin!
  Happy moments!
  Heavenly joys on earth begin.

2 On the Saviour’s fulness living,
  All his saints obtain delight;
  With the strength which he is giving,
  They can wrestle, they can fight.
  Happy moments!
  When King Jesus is in sight.

3 Nearer, nearer, to him clinging,
  Let my helpless soul be found,
  All my sorrows to him bringing,
  May his grace in me abound;
  Happy moments!
  With new covenant blessings crowned.
