Nehemiah 8:10: This is the joy my soul desires
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
This is the joy my soul desires,
The joy' my Saviour's love inspires,
Which brings the power that sets me free,
Power to renounce whate'er is me; l
Power to sell all, and purchase Thee. J
