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.
