Joy

Joy in the morning
Love of bird songs trickling through leaves
Joy in the evening
Ocean waves breaking on the golden shores
Joy in the night
Vapours in jasmine fragrance their magic weaves
Joy in the eternal
Echoes faith that changes and restores
Joy is God alone
Rescuing the heart from languishing unknown
Settling the trust in the certainty of his throne.

Let me believe in you again
O let me hear you sing phrases of truth
Nurture my faith beyond life's pain
Give me the right to claim your worth beyond refute.
