Relief

Joy comes in the morning
The Word of God declares.
So why so much forlorning?
Why such empty stares?

Is it a matter of belief?
Has despair blinded the eye?
There’s available certain relief
This will cause you to no longer cry.

You say that it isn’t so.
There’s no relief to be found.
Why not to His Word go?
It’s really quite profound.
