Slim Dusty - Joybells in Your Heart lyrics
rate meWhen I hear how the lepers they were cleansed,
And how Jesus changed the hearts of men,
Only one returned to thank his Lord,
What happiness was his reward.
He had the joybells ringing in his heart,
Joybells ringing in his soul,
He has joybells ringing in his heart,
Because Jesus made it so.
Then I read how the multitudes were fed,
When Jesus blessed the fish and bread,
All were fed and all were filled with joy,
Especially one obedient boy.
Then I think of the men of Galilee,
In that ship out on that stormy sea,
All was dark, so dark, right until,
Jesus whispered "Peace be still".
They had the joybells ringing in their hearts,
Joybells ringing in their souls,
They had joybells ringing in their hearts,
Because Jesus made it so.
Do you know how the miracles began?
At that wedding in the Canaan land,
Mary looked to Jesus for a sign,
When he turned the water into wine.
Like that good Samaritan today,
Who bound the wounds of the man right where he lay,
Trusting God and always do the right,
Then youll have joybells day and night.
Youll have the joybells ringing in your heart,
Joybells ringing in your soul,
Youll have joybells ringing in your heart,
Because Jesus made it so.
Youll have the joybells ringing in your heart,
Joybells ringing in your soul,
Youll have joybells ringing in your heart,
Because Jesus made it so.
