Happy Am I

I hope you are happy today. I pray these words lift your spirit. They are some thoughts I had back in January of this year. Happy Am I . . .

Here I stand by grace surrounded,
I am kept by love divine;
All my enemies will be confounded
Even though they may align.
Happy am I, God’s grace is mine!

Though relationships all may pale,
And all friendships surely fail,
I refuse to give up all I cherish,
Even if at last I perish;
Happy am I, God’s love is fine!

In the fire God may prove me,
From this world to set me free,
He will never cease to love me;
For his truth has made me free.
Happy am I, God’s grace is mine!

Here I stand by grace divine,
I am kept both day and night,
God is in me like new wine,
Now and forever my only light.
Happy am I, God’s love is fine!

Dear Father, thank you for your grace and mercy. Thank you for the joy you give. Enable us to share the joy with others. In Jesus’ name. AMEN

Let us praise God for his joy and share it liberally,
