The joy of the Lord is a wonderful thing.

It makes your soul glad and your heart to sing;

That joy that’s within causes you to be strong,

So stay in Gods Word for to Him you belong!

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips: (Psalms 65:3)

Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. (Nehemiah 8:10)

And ye now, therefore, have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.  (John 16:22)

And ye are Christ’s; and Christ is God’s. (1 Corinthians 3:23)
