Crafting Joy
what joy to see all You have made
and to know that it is good
what sorrow when man hath strayed
and sin between you stood....
the snake, more crafty than all
poisons us with lies
to make us doubt, then fall
ourselves to despise
we are crafted in God's image
formed from lumps of clay
part of royal lineage
ours was the sixth day
Christ became flesh for the weak
walked on clay and grass
on our behalf would He speak
commanding the second death to pass!
why then do we waste much time
lamenting our lack of joy
when He made souls and spirits rhyme
crafting laughter for each girl and boy
we are the cream on His cake of creation
He shines good gifts from above
reveals to each generation
the endless mercy of His perfect love
let's be happy today
the devil to spite
go outside and play
blessed children of the Light
