Joy Is

A star shinning in my heart with the morning light When I thank God’s protections all through the night A sun brightening my life in every way Instilled by Holy Spirit guiding me day by day A warm wind making me feel God’s omnipresence Feeling the love and care of my family, clan and friends A moonlight giving romance to sweet couple Being in-love with my mission sharing and serving people A rich garden with all the beautiful and fragrant flowers As I’ve strength for challenges with smiles and laughter The most wonderful grace from the Divine Providence Making me grateful for all His gifts and my accomplishments A fruit of the Holy Spirit born in one’s heart-core Making me a blessing, Oh God to Thee, I joyfully adore!
