The Joy of the Lord

I hear the wind chimes in the breeze singing                                                                                                   listen-listen are the angels also singing joyfully                                                                                       in the warmth of the day                                                                                                                          the chimes are ringing out in a symphony                                                                                                 it is like a heavenly choir right outside my door. 

 
 
The joy of the Lord is here                                                                                                                       He is everywhere                                                                                                                                               by day and by night His joy fills us so right                                                                                                        share the joy with others do not delay                                                                                                 the world needs to know this today.
