REJOICE

This is a beautiful poem written by a wonderful poet I am blessed to know!


“Rejoice” 

Rejoice in the Lord

Do not be anxious or fear

Let your gentleness be evident

Rejoice, for the Lord is near. 

Rejoice in the Lord

Pray with complete thanksgiving

His peace will guard your heart

Your life will be worth living. 

Rejoice in the Lord

Embrace what is noble and true

Petitions will be answered

He desires to give this to you. 

Rejoice in the Lord

Remain close, admirable and pure

His peace transcends all understanding

There is nothing you cannot endure. 

Rejoice in the Lord

For He is loving and kind

Everything you will ever learn

In Jesus Christ, you will find. 

Rejoice in the Lord

Even when you are broken

The love of God will strengthen

Just receive the words spoken. 

Rejoice in the Lord

Your troubles you may plead

Rejoice, rejoice, rejoice

He will meet your every need. 

Philippians 4:4-9
