Love, Joy, Sink Into My Heart

Love, Joy, sink into my heart
And contain every chamber
Come and soften what is hard
That I might feel my Savior

I keep thinking about Alma- when he was harrowed up in sorrow for sin and wished to have not even existed.  In an instant this pain was gone when he remembered what he once knew.  
  1.   3 Behold, I went to hunt beasts in the forests; and the words which I had often heard my father speak concerning eternal life, and the ajoy of the saints, bsunk deep into my heart.
