Show Notes

Even as the tears slip off my cheeks
I will rejoice
Even as my heart grows still
I will rejoice
And when fear circles around me
Hissing in mocking contempt
I will rejoice
Though the wind may howl in my face
Though the skies turn black in deepest pain
Though the things I love be taken from me
Though all my works are just in vain
I will rejoice

When I am overcome by the beauty of a sunset
I will rejoice
When love and peace feel close enough to touch
I will rejoice
On brighter, cleaner, fairer days
I will rejoice
When the wind gently caresses my hair
When the sun and stars sparkle in my eyes
When blessings fall like manna from heaven
And when I am in awe of perfect peace
I will rejoice
• Leah Najimy

• How can you rejoice in God’s perfect love today?

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Philippians 4:4 (CSB)
