It’s
easy to sing in a glad situation,
But
sometimes we walk in the valley of sorrows.
Behold
now the Rock of our soul’s elevation:
In
Christ there is joy through eternal tomorrows!
So
how can we sing the Lord’s song in this land
Where
many are strangely refusing God’s grace
And
multitudes willfully don’t understand
The
Source of our blessings bestowed on this place?
And
how shall we sing in a land so confused
Forgetting
that God is Author of peace?
There
once was a time when the Bible was used
For
counsel by which opposition would cease.
Look
up! There is joy in our Savior and King!
He
still is the Ruler of each circumstance.
The
Lord is our reason at all times to sing;
We’re
trusting in Jesus, and not in blind chance.
We
thank You, O Lord, for the joy You impart
That
gives us a song and a light on our path.
In
each situation there’s peace in our heart,
Since
You have redeemed us and saved us from wrath.
