True joy is beautiful, powerful, enchanting, and unstoppable, and today I am so thankful for the joy of the Lord.
I have had the lyrics to the song “What Joy” in my head for the past several weeks, and I’ve been loving it so much, I want to share it here:
You made the heavens and the earth
The sea and all that is in it
Your promises remain
You give justice to the weak
You care for the widow and orphan
Forevermore You reign
What joy, what joy for those whose hope is in the name of the Lord
What peace, what peace for those whose confidence is Him alone!
Hallelujah, forever we will sing
Hallelujah, praises to the King
Hallelujah, forever we will sing
Hallelujah, praises to the King
Hallelujah!
I have seen and tasted that the Lord is good, and that joy that comes from Him is unshakable no matter what happens–come what may, what joy and peace for those whose confidence and hope is in the Lord!
The joy of the Lord is strength.
I had never heard that song, but I love it – thanks for sharing!
Yeah, this is my first time hearing this song too and a warm feeling spread over me when it began :). Thanks for sharing!
Tha’ts going to make things a lot easier from here on out.
