“Don’t forsake me!”

“I crown joy over me!”

When thoughts say I won’t prevail:

and may lead me astray,

“I crown joy over me!”

When all else fail as I age & songs are the only thing,

I can embrace: fill me with grace & crown joy over me!”

When blues get the best of me,

let it be you only I seek and crown joy over me!”

When its’ hard to see my way: Victory let it be!”

“I crown Joy over me!”

Dear God, thank you, cause you—crown Joy over me!
