“Bad times come and go, so do good times. But God never comes and goes – He is always with us. The proof of this is in life’s ebb and flow – bad times and good times, nothing ever lasts except our relationship with and dependence on Him. It is by this reason alone that we have the courage to walk through our lives and proclaim with faith and no matter what - ‘Isn’t Life Wonderful!’” (thanks Dad, love me)

Yes, there was a day I thought would never end
Yes, there was a time I hope won’t come again
Lonely hours and sadness in my heart
But as you can see I’ve overcome
The hard times and the grief don’t slow me
When my eyes perceive the grace that underlines my days

Isn’t life wonderful – isn’t life wonderful

Make me out a place to lay and rest
Make me simple dreams to fill my head
Love me and be loved for who we are
I am not someone to complicate
The simple and the great I close my eyes
And wonder in my heart at how we’ve come this far

Isn’t life wonderful – isn’t life wonderful
Isn’t life grand the way we laugh and love
Fear below and seek above
Isn’t life wonderful – oh, so grand and wonderful

Some things are unspoken by choice
I don’t say much, but I’ve found my voice
And I know who I am
And I’m grateful for the life I lead
And I’ve found my freedom right here in my hand
