A Cup of Joy
To be happy you first have to create it in your mind...
It's not something you search for or seldom find.
When you wake up in the morning and begin your day ...
First count your blessings and then thank God and pray,
Give up those thoughts that breed discontent...
And just remember everything that comes your way is heaven sent.
Don't spend time wishing for things that you have not...
But simply make the best of what you've got.
Know that life is already determined for us...
Then pursue each task without a fret a fume or a fuss.
Just get busy and complete what God gives you to do...
Do that and you'll find real contentment and be happy too.
God wants you happy because it's good for the heart...
And being happy in your mind is a great place to start.
So fill your cup with joy as you as you begin your day...
Then health and happiness will be headed your way.
