You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
John 8:32
Words & Music: Barney E. Warren, Salvation Echoes (Anderson, Indiana: Gospel Trumpet, 1900), number 75 (🔊 pdf nwc).
There is peace and joy in the Lord today,
More than all in this world of sin;
There’s a happy life in the holy way;
Praise the Lord, I have entered in.
Refrain
Praise the Lord, I am free
In His love and grace;
Oh, His blood reaches me;
I abide ’neath His smiling face.
I am blest today, I am free indeed;
What a pleasure to serve the Lord!
How it fills my soul with delight to read
In His sacred and holy word!
Refrain
Since my cross is gone and my heart is right,
Oh, how blessèd to do His will!
Now His yoke is easy, His burden light,
And His Spirit my soul doth fill.
Refrain
If you’re overcome when you would do right,
If a deep aching void within,
There’s a sting of guilt and a sinful blight,
That will keep you from entering in.
Refrain
All His grace is free as the air we breathe;
We may each have a full supply;
If we will obey and His word believe,
He’ll prepare us to dwell on high.
Refrain
