Duration: P00H03M10S
Description: Someone asked me to write a song about joy based on a scripture from Isaiah 35 for Advent. Since I don't typically write about joy (yes, I need to work on that) it was a real treat to finally write something happy.

lyrics

Song of Joy
by Frances Drost

Even the desert will be glad
And the wilderness rejoice
When the Lord comes near
Then blinded eyes will start to see
And the deaf ears they will hear
When the Lord comes near

Sing a song of hope, sing a song of joy
When the glory of the Lord is near
Sing a song of hope, sing a song of joy
For the glory of the Lord is here

Then those who know the Lord will sing
On the journey as they go
When the Lord comes near
Gladness and joy will overcome
And the sorrow disappear
When the Lord comes near

Do not be afraid
I bring you good news great joy to all
To all the people
Today in Bethlehem a Savior is born
He is Christ the Lord
He is Christ the Lord
