The Joy of the Lord is My Strength

ABC's...pretty clever 
 

     Although things are not perfect
     Because of trial or pain

      Continue in thanksgiving
     Do not begin to blame

     Even when the times are hard
     Fierce winds are bound to blow

     God is forever able
     Hold on to what you know

    I magine life without His love
    Joy would cease to be

    Keep thanking Him for all the things
    Love imparts to thee

    Move out of "Camp Complaining"
    No weapon that is known
    On earth can yield the power
    Praise can do alone

    Quit looking at the future
    Redeem the time at hand

    Start every day with worship
    To "thank" is a command

    Until we see Him coming
    Victorious in the sky

    We'll run the race with gratitude
    Exalting God most high

    Yes, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad, but...
    Zion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

   "I Am Too blessed to be stressed!"
   The shortest distance between a problem and a solution is the
   Distance between your knees and the floor.

   The one who kneels to the Lord can stand up to anything.
