Joy
JOY
to be loved
unconditionally
never weep over past
failure
to be exalted in humble
infamy
receive mercy and grace in our
favor
to be frail without any
claim
no bargaining power in
plight
to be blessed in frailty’s
name
knowing our strength is His
might
no greater JOY than His
provision
no greater JOY than His
love
no greater JOY than His
precision
no greater JOY than His
above
“The Joy of the Lord is our Strength”—Nehemiah 8:10
