God’s joy unspeakable silences bullies
And leaves them with nothing to say,
For, lifting our sadness, it gives us fresh strength
Through Jesus, God’s Word to obey.
This gift of God’s grace comes from knowing
We’re forgiven for all of our sins,
Because Jesus died to save us from our pride.
Everyone who believes in Him wins!
His blood is enough to atone for our crimes.
To their scourges we need not fall prey.
When we know God is for us, then we cannot lose.
No bully can stand in our way.
Goliaths will shrink when we focus on Christ,
Receiving His garment of praise.
His overblown insults will dwindle to zilch
When our hands up to heaven we raise.
The giant’s a pipsqueak compared to our LORD,
So let him be small in our eyes.
We’ll pop his balloon by exalting the name
That whittles the bum down to size.
Blind rage feeds a bully and makes us his slave
If to its desires we yield.
To magnify problems makes mountains of them,
But Jesus is our hope and shield,
Because in His shelter there’s freedom from fear,
So under His shadow let’s hide,
Drawing near to our Savior while scorning the doubt.
Joy unspeakable shall be our guide.
Resisting self-pity, depression and hate,
Let’s declare that in Jesus we’re free.
Though tears fall like rain, we can choose to proclaim
“There is no condemnation for me!”
As we keep on declaring the greatness of God,
Hurt feelings will be forced to flee.
For when joy unspeakable enters our hearts
We’ll know that in Christ we are free.
