 1 

Come and rejoice with me!

For once my heart was poor,

And I have found a treasury

Of love, a boundless store.

 
 2 

Come and rejoice with me!

I, once so sick at heart,

Have met with One who knows my case,

And knows the healing art.

 
 3 

Come and rejoice with me!

For I was wearied sore,

And I have found a mighty arm

Which holds me evermore.

 
 4 

Come and rejoice with me!

My feet so wide did roam,

And One has brought me from afar,

To find in Him my home.

 
 5 

Come and rejoice with me!

For I have found a Friend

Who knows my heart's most secret depths,

Yet loves me without end.

 
 6 

I knew not of His love;

And He had loved so long,

With love so faithful and so deep,

So tender and so strong.

 
 7 

And now I know it all,

Have heard and known His voice,

And hear it still from day to day.

Can I enough rejoice?
