Blessed Joy
( BLESSED JOY )
O! lonely tear,
why dost thou fall.
When goodness dost,
like sunshine call.
I fall because,
of joy within.
Which makes even,
the sunshine grim.
For one whose love,
has found me fast.
And tightly to me,
bound at last.
I fall for joy,
for hope, for love.
I've fallen for,
sweet handsome dove.
This tear dost not,
fall sadly down.
It weeps with pleasure,
great and proud.
Fear not, great souls,
when pain doth smite.
For love is bold,
to win and fight.
Hold true to love,
and when you rest.
Sweet tears of joy,
will see you blessed.
