Joy

喜び

Yorokobi

from Psalm 84

Rise to be wise.
Shine while you dine.
Find the sublime in time.

Be new for all and for you;
born by spirit; just hear it; be near it.
Walk calmly. Stand tall.

Let the turbulence fall.
Look upon joy like a toy.
Life’s essence is our defense.

One day in your presence is better than a thousand
without you. It is better to stand on the threshold of goodness
than to dwell in the house of cruelty or violence.

Faith is both our sun and shield.
Love gives grace and glory.

Nothing good will be withheld
from those who walk with integrity.

Happy are those who put their trust in truth.
We construct justice with joy by the design for reality.
