Entwined In Troubles - Advent - Joy

 

It’s easy to rejoice and sing
When this world falls in place,
But when we’re entwined in trouble,
Of joy, there is small trace.
 
Yet that is when we need our joy,
To lift our hearts in song.
It may not fix what troubles us,
But joy can make us strong.
 
A heart that finds cause to rejoice
Even when life is rough,
Will see fresh blessings everywhere,
And have more than enough.
 
Be strong and let your voice sing out,
Rejoice and hope in Him.
Let that joy lift you through all things,
Whether hope filled or grim.
 
Romans 12:12
Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.
