The Joy of the Lord
Do not leave me. Do not leave me! O how could I let you leave me? Run back to it Attach to it
It brings light to darkness Sin separates me from it It fills my cup ’til it runs over In its absence I am barren
It fills my heart It spreads like fire How could you leave it? Oh what peace!
It comes from within It is shaken not by circumstance It is granted by grace It brings light to my face
It is the shadow of your wings, it is the never-ending spring, it is life, it is love
“Draw near to me, and I will draw near to you”. I will O Lord, I will! Because:
I have tasted it I will chase it I will not stop Until I obtain it!
What is it? The Joy of the Lord
