Choosing Joy


Though we are ringed about with woe,
Still we can sing with joy.
Or we can let our sorrows win,
All happiness destroy.
The choice lies within every heart,
And each heart must decide
If it will live a life of joy,
Or with sorrow abide.
For there is sorrow in each day,
There is much joy also.
And we will find that which we seek.
That’s one truth that I know.
 
So make the choice, lift up your heart
And sing out songs of praise.
Though we may be ringed by our woes,
Still these are joyous days!
 
Psalm 126:2
Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, “The Lord has done great things for them.”
