Joy Upon The Lord

Frost has fallen again

Non-stop endless rain

Darts of coal black ice

Loads too heavy to bear

They press me hard to the ground

I have no strength to rise

Fire took all my fortune

So humbled by my falling down

Fire came, making me

A sinner of a man

I know that joy upon the lord

Is where our strength will rise

Even the low, the weak one

Finds the lord gives help, advise

There's one who helps the weakest child

Jesus the mighty God

So fix your trust upon our saviour

Safe in your warmth again

Non-stop endless rain

A sweet scent of blessings

Loads have vanished away

All of my gratefulness

I lay in Jesus' hands

Fire brought all God's fortune

Lifted me higher than my reach

Fire came, took away

The sinner of a man

Fire takes and fire brings

Unto the mercy seat of God

Fire makes, fire takes

The sinner of a man
