Alive: Let there be joy

Happiness is a feeling; joy is a decision. So, let us decide.

Dear God,

When I am among the people whom I love – let there be joy;

When I spend time in silence and solitude – let there be joy;

When I go about my daily business – let there be joy;

When the sorrows of life weigh me down – let there be joy;

When circumstances do not go my way – let there be joy;

When I cannot see the path ahead of me – let there be joy;

Among the highs and the lows, the weakness and the strength,

In every season of life O Lord – let there be joy.

Amen.
