Rejoice in the Lord
Rejoice in the Lord always and again i say rejoice!
Rejoice in the Lord always and again i say rejoice!
Rejoice, rejoice, and again i say rejoice!
Rejoice, rejoice, and again i say rejoice!

lyrics from a simple christian song which even nursery kids know how 2 sing.
tend to overlook e lyrics cos it's so familar. sang it when i was walking back from jogging 2day.
it's easy to rejoice in e Lord when we're filled with joy n happy events. wat about when we're overcome with sorrow or sufferings? Look to a fine example in e Bible. Job. God tested Him by taking away all tat he had. His sheeps, cows, camels, children, but he answered :"The lord gave and the Lord has taken away; may the name of the Lord be praised." (Job 1:21) Then God took away his health, gave him sores all over his body. still he said :"shall we accept good from God, and not trouble?" (Job 2:10) in spite of the cynical n demoralising comments tat his wife and friends said to him.
