Joy Is In Our Hearts

I recently purchased the new Sara Groves album (for $5 on amazon.com) and the last song on the album really stood out to me...here are the lyrics:

"Joy Is In Our Hearts"
We were pressed on every side
Full of fear and troubled thoughts
For good reason, we carried heavy hearts

It is good to come together
In a friendship to remember
All the reasons, hope is in our hearts

Alleluia, Alleluia,
Christ, our joy and strength
Alleluia, Alleluia
Christ, our joy and strength

Now with patience in our suffering
Perseverance in our prayers
With good reason, this hope is in our hearts

Alleluia, Alleluia,
Christ, our joy and strength
Alleluia, Alleluia
Christ, our joy and strength

Oh, we saw the face of the angels
Many good things well secured
For good reason, this joy is in our hearts

Alleluia, Alleluia,
Christ, our joy and strength
Alleluia, Alleluia
Christ, our joy and strength

For good reason, joy is in our hearts

------------------------------------------------------------
This song is such a simple, powerful and beautiful reminder of the reason for our joy and strength: Christ. Even when we are pressed on every side and our hearts are heavy, Christ is our one, true source of overflowing joy that never fails.
