You Can Rejoice!

By Edd Sterchi

You may not have much in pocket or purse

And before it gets better, it could get worse

Yet you can rejoice – You can rejoice!

You may not have health as well as before

And your illnesses could multiply more

Yet you can rejoice – You can rejoice!

You may not have what others may own

And what you do have, away may be flown

Yet you can rejoice – You can rejoice!

You may not have the most rewarding career

And you may be stuck with it – no ending near

Yet you can rejoice – You can rejoice!

You may not have the perfect home life

And deal with vexing kids, husband, or wife

Yet you can rejoice – You can rejoice!

If God has saved you through the blood of His Son

Then life’s setbacks mean nothing – the victory’s won.

Through any situation – any – bar none

You can rejoice – You can rejoice!
