There are so many times when my heart has been warmed by the touch of the Holy Spirit since I became a Christian.  The joys of Salvation are too numerous to count.  But here are some of the sweet comforts of joy that floods the hearts of those that belong to Jesus.

Sweet Comforts of Joy

Sweet comforts of joy flood the soul,
When the treasures of God unfold.
What are the treasures of a saved soul?
They are the sweet comfort of joy under God’s control.
Such as peace in the midst of a stormy time,
When the world’s ways trouble and boggle the mind.
The sure knowledge all is well within;
And that you are well-pleasing to the God that calls you friend.
The Word that you count on for wisdom supply;
It is like a river of refreshing-water that never goes dry.
God’s willing ear that hears every word you say;
And the sweet assurance and comfort after you pray.
The future that shines like diamonds on a crystal sea;
That beckons with hope and mystery.
The lights of love in your brother’s eye;
The sure hope and provision of God’s supply.
The thrills of the thought of Christ’ return;|The eternal gratitude of Salvation unearned;
And the sweet loving sound of forever’s eternal plan,
That the mind stretches to see and to understand.
Sweet comforts of joy for those who belong to God above,
All are reminders of the truth they are well loved.

1 Peter 1:8-9
Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
