Michael P. Johnson - Forever Joy

Lord! Forever more, never more
My joy will ever cease
For You eternal are The Door
Ajar to endless peace

You’ve given me true life my King
Raising my soul from death
In victory, love’s sweet song I’ll sing
Riding on Heaven’s Breath

Life’s Counsellor! The Holy Ghost
Your Promise from above
Making me fit with Heaven’s host
To walk and live in love

I bless the day I Christ believed
When Truth began to reign
Freeing of sin, as faith received
Brought grace to live again

I pray to seek Your guiding hand
Make mine Your righteous Way
Make wise my God to understand
And never more to stray

You are The Only God on high
The King of kings unique
Loving so much you chose to die
Each child life’s grace would seek

I’ve come; my God because of Christ
Your righteousness revealed
The spotless Lamb You sacrificed
That death to Life would yield

I thank my God for saving me
For selfless love divine
For Jesus’ blood setting me free
And Heaven’s will be mine

Michael P. Johnson
