Joy, Joy, Joy, Joy Down in My Heart!!

When I thought about Joy For Our Journey today,
the first thing that popped into my head was...
I've got joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart!!

So here you go, Sweeties!!
An uplifting song to start the week with!!



I've Got the Joy In My Heart

I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart
Where?
Down in my heart!
Where?
Down in my heart!
I've got the joy, joy, joy, joy down in my heart
Down in my heart to stay

And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart
Down in my heart
And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart.

I've got the love of Jesus, love of Jesus
Down in my heart
Where?
Down in my heart!
Where?
Down in my heart!
I've got the love of Jesus, love of Jesus
Down in my heart
Where?
Down in my heart to stay.

And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart
Down in my heart
And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart.

I've got the peace that passes understanding
Way down in the depths of my heart!
Where?
Down in the depths of my heart!
Where?
Down in the depths of my heart!
I've got the peace that passes understanding
Way down in the depths of my heart!
Down in my heart to stay

And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart
Down in my heart
And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart.

And if the Devil doesn't like it
He can sit on a tack!
Ouch!
Sit on a tack!
Ouch!
Sit on a tack!
And if the Devil doesn't like it
He can sit on a tack!
Ouch!
Sit on a tack to stay!

And I'm so happy
So very happy
I've got the love of Jesus in my heart
Down in my heart
And I'm so happy
So very happy

I've got the love of Jesus in my heart!!

  5. Love, love, love the song! Sang it by the hour as a kid. My dad could really belt it out, and sis and I joined right in!

    Happy and wonderful week to you! I'm wondering --- if you would like to change your blogger settings so that I could reply directly to comments you send. I'm not sure how to do it (can you just click on mine and reply to me?) but it would be fun to have an easier way to 'chat'.

    Bossy friend, huh! LOL!

    Off to my day! Have a great one, Becky!

  13. DEAR BECKY,
    I WANTED YOU TO KNOW I HAD USED YOUR PINK DAISY IN MY RIGHT HAND COLUMN TO A ROBERT BROWNING POEM ABOUT SPRING..............WHEN YOU CLICK ON THE PINK DAISY, IT GOES TO YOUR BLOG.
    I BELIEVE I MUST BE A GOOD STEWARD OVER ANY PIC I AM GIVEN...USUALLY I PUT A SCRIPTURE BUT I LOVED THIS POEM ON SPRING....IF IT IS NOT OKAY I WILL REMOVE IT.
    I SAW THE COMMENT FROM GRACE FROM HIM AND YOU BEING ABLE TO SNAG PICS....I AM GOING TO HER SITE TO ASK HER TO REVIEW MY BLOG AND SEE IF I CAN'T USE SOME OF HER TAGS
    LOVE
