I heard her singing to the morn Soft and still, as if meant to warn Where the black night dwindles to day There is a joy that’s sure to stay Whisper of the bluebird in flight Rising from the murkiest night Honest as one who kneels to pray There is a joy that’s sure to stay I never knew such precious grace As the love on His gentle face Love far brighter than the sun’s ray There is a joy that’s sure to stay Gentle words so softly spoken Lifting up the heart who’s broken Peace in the soul on the Lord’s Day There is a joy that’s sure to stay Rise to hear the song of the wood Revealing the hope that withstood Listen to God’s word and obey There is a joy that’s sure to stay Sing to the night, sing to the light Wherever He is, all is right His sweet love will never betray There is a joy that’s sure to stay Write it down, poetries in word Breath of wonder, at last we’ve heard Believe and never go astray There is a joy that’s sure to stay It rises on the wings of praise His love will forever amaze He is the One who ends the gray There is a joy that’s sure to stay Silence the windstorm with His still Blessing souls, He’ll ever fulfill Our sin debt, Jesus took away There is a joy that’s sure to stay All the fears, the tears and the years Are quieted when He appears And, when our lifetime, we replay There is a joy that’s sure to stay Follow the One who came to give Saving souls so we’ll always live In the sky, in heaven someday There is a joy that’s sure to stay
