"Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God."
Ps 42:11

O Rejoice In The Lord

 

God never moves without purpose or plan.

When trying His servant and molding a man.

Give thanks to the Lord though your testing seems long;

In darkness He giveth a song.

 

I could not see through the shadows ahead;

So I looked at the cross of my Saviour instead,

I bowed to the will of the Master that day;

Then peace came and tears fled away.

 

Now I can see testing comes from above,

God strengthens His children and purges in love.

My Father knows best, and I trust in His care;

Through purging more fruit I will bear.

 

Refrain:

O rejoice in the Lord, He makes no mistake,

He knoweth the end of each path that I take,

For when I am tried and purified,

I shall come forth as gold.
