COUNT IT ALL JOY
COUNT IT ALL JOY
Count it all joy ? When pain wreaks havoc . When life delivers that curve ball , And you just can ’ t grab it . When loneliness fills a crowded room , And your thoughts are impossible to breathe through .
Count it all joy ? When your heart doesn ’ t beat , Or when the beats are so faint you appear dead , but still wander this life — lifeless . He paid a debt that ’ s priceless . How can this price tag be too high to survive this ?
Count it all joy ? The fear of the unknown . You reach out — but they ’ re long gone . A day late and a dollar short , Tomorrow always brings the same thing . Maybe it ’ s just a bad dream , Silent screams .
Count it all joy ? When God doesn ’ t take that cup , The bridge between our will and His will Is where we often get stuck . When all that you tried just wasn ’ t good enough . The weight of the world , And life slips from our clutch .
But yes , count it ALL joy ! And remove all doubt , For in time we will learn what it was all about .
