Divine and holy

joy is the knowledge that

our loving, perfect,

omniscient and omnipotent

God is in control of our lives.

Count it all joy.

Count it all joy

when blessings are sent,

Count it all joy!

Count it all joy

when trials are sent.

Count it all joy.

Count it all joy

when because of our

love for Jesus Christ

persecution is sent.

Count it all joy.

Count it all joy

when we suffer

for Christ’s sake

Count it all joy.

Count it all joy

whatever our

loving God

chooses to

send our way.

Count it all joy.

Count it all joy

when sorrows are sent.

Count it all joy.

Count it all joy

for Christ is our

potter and we are

His delighted in

and beloved clay.

Count it all joy!

May we because

of our love and

trust in our precious

Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ

with full assurance in our

hearts, souls, minds

always be able to

continuously say,

“Count it all joy.”
