Joy
ONE CANNOT BUY JOY
JUST LIKE ONE CANNOT BUY LOVE
BECAUSE JOY, LOVE, AND PEACE
ARE GIFTS FROM CHRIST ABOVE
MONEY DOES NOT BRING JOY
IN SOME CASES IT BRINGS DESPAIR
JOY CAN BE BROUGHT ON
BY LETTING OTHERS KNOW YOU CARE
JOY IS A FEELING THAT COMES AT MORNING’S LIGHT
WHEN THE SADNESS IS GONE AND WE HAVE WON ANOTHER FIGHT
WE FIGHT SATAN, DEMONS, THE EFFECTS OF PEOPLE’S WORDS AND DEEDS AND
CIRCUMSTANCE
IF IT WAS NOT FOR THE JOY OF THE LORD
WE WOULD NOT STAND A CHANCE
HAPPINESS IS TEMPORARY
BUT JOY GOES ON AND ON
JOY MAKES US WANT THE BEST IN LIFE
AND PUTS IN HEARTS PRAISE SONGS
JOY CAN RESCUE US IN TIMES OF GRIEF
WHEN A LOVED ONE LEAVES US
JOY AND PEACE CAN BRING RELIEF
JOY IS HAVING JESUS
POSSESS AND DWELL IN THE HEART AND SOUL
HAVING THIS JOY HELPS US MAKE THROUGH INFIRMITIES AND PAIN
AND GIVES THE STRENGTH TO HOLD ON WHILE GOD MAKES US WHOLE
