Front Porch Fridays: The Joy of the LORD


THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY ROCK, MY STRENGTH
By Lucia M.

When the sunny days seem to outlast the grey,
When always, I cherish each happy day,
Be there hours of laughter, or trials of length--
The joy of the LORD is my rock, my strength.

When treacherous billows around me rise,
When all of the blue has gone out my skies
Be there hours of laughter, or trials of length--
The joy of the LORD is my rock, my strength.

When the pages of life are closed in death,
And at long last I take of my final breath--
There’ll be laughter and smiles of glorious length
With the joy of the LORD as my rock, my strength.



Front Porch Fridays are designed for the encouragment and support of the young lady blogger, striving to bring her closer to the Creator in each post.

  1. Hello Lucia,

    I love your blog!

    That was such an encouraging post! ;)

    I think that we share alikeness...because we're both homeschooled, about the same age, and ultimately, serve the same God. :)

    I started a blog earlier this month, and I'm having fun with it! Please feel free to visit at: www.uniquelyfashionedforhisglory.blogspot.com

    Blessings in Christ,
