Thoughts of Rejoicing

Lord, I’m thinking
if all was right,
I might not
keep You in sight.

I am thinking
if there’s no pain,
how would you
restore again?

Then, I imagine
life without fears,
no need for You
to dry my tears.

I think of being happy
continually.
Why would I need
to go to my knees?

Then I imagine
a life without You,
no sins washed away-
no longer made new.

It’s then I rejoice
in what today brings,
even if it’s sadness
‘cause Heaven I’ll ring.

I’ll talk to You, Saviour.
You are my best friend.
Yes, I’ll talk to You, Jesus-
Your love never ends!

We may not agree
On everything,
Yet, You are the reason
my heart doth sing

I know I fail You
‘cause perfect, I’m not.
I just keep praying
that You’ll cleanse each spot.
