GOD MY EXCEEDING JOY

There may be times that bring on depressive feelings;

But these can be overcome with greater understanding.

We can stop negative feelings from taking root in our heart;

The Lord can bid all these negative thoughts to depart!

 

Our knowledge of God must stand us in good stead;

We do not need to give up because of the wicked!

The deeper our understanding of the Lord;

The greater would be our faith in our God.

 

Our faith in God will enable us to face great odds;

We must exercise great trust in our great God.

He will help us fend off fears and dark feelings;

We can find a Joy that is truly greatly exceeding!

 

God Himself is the Source of exceeding Joy;

This Joy that He gives is without any alloy.

Thank God for His matchless mercy;

To the LORD our Joy, we must give glory!
