Joy

Written By Jess Leigh

Joy are the beautiful things

In life that are happy and carefree.

Joy springs from within us with airy wings,

Soaring over a deep blue sea.

Joy is in a startling sunset;

Breathtaking, sunny and bright.

It’s light streaming through clouds without a threat,

And it flies in the sky like a kite.

Joy is in the gentle rain,

Bringing life and healing

To a world and people full of pain.

Joy is so full of life it sends you kneeling.

Joy is a forest and a field of flowers,

Full of colour, peace and magnificence.

It’s in a room full of love, and it showers

Down from above with gentle assurance.

Joy is in a rainbow;

It’s a promise and a hymn,

It’s a gift from God that is there to show

Us a glimpse of a coming Kingdom
