Though the car may fail to start
And the roof is leaking
Though the job has finished
And there is no food in the house
Though my shoes have worn out
And my clothes have holes in them
YET I will rejoice in the Lord
I will joy in the God of my salvation
The Lord God is my strength
He will make me walk on my high hills
Though the debts are piling high
And the bills cannot be paid
Though my children go astray
And my spouse hates me
Though my family desert me
And my friends forsake me
YET I will rejoice in the Lord
I will joy in the God of my salvation
The Lord God is my strength
He will make me walk on my high hills
