REJOICE IN THE LORD
C Am Dm G7
God never moves without purpose or plan
Em Am Dm Em
When trying His servant and molding a man.
C Am Dm G7
Give thanks to the Lord though your testing seems long;
F G7 C
In darkness He giveth a song.
CHORUS:
C Am Dm G7
O rejoice in the Lord. He makes no mis-take.
C Am Dm G7
He knoweth the end of each path that I take.
Am Em F Fm/D
For when I am tried and puri-fied,
C/G G C
I shall come forth as gold.
I could not see through the shadows ahead;
So I looked at the cross of my Savior instead.
I bowed to the will of the Master that day;
Then peace came and tears fled away.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
Now I can see testing comes from above;
God strengthens His children and purges in love.
My Father knows best, and I trust in His care;
Through purging more fruit I will bear.
(REPEAT CHORUS)
