Contagious Joy

Our worship evident
shining on our faces
sharing the love of God
in the coming of the Christ

Our lives should be worship
grace heaped upon grace
sharing God’s love with our neighbors
to all the people on earth

Contagious joy, overflowing
washing over the world
the true of God’s love for all of us
in the gift of Jesus, the Son

Our victory assured
the rest of the story to unfold
God will bring us to him
at a time yet unknown

We must be faithful
trusting in our God
preparing our hearts for that day
when by grace we receive that reward

Living with our Maker
walking those streets made of gold
sitting by the flowing waters
in the arms our great, great Lord
