The Joy Of Life

By Elton Smith, Steve Israel and Larry Holder

CCLI Number: 5913747

We went back to the roots of this site in the music for this song, and chose a bossa nova style. Steve and I worked together to write the music and all 3 of us contributed to the lyrics. Steve made the recording with help from Larry on the strings. - Elton, 23 January 2011

Recording by Steve Israel

mp3
(Verse 1)
I have seen your grace and mercy
As I've followed You, my Lord
You have kept Your ev'ry promise
As the days flow onward
There is no comparing to
The peace that dwells within my soul
Yet there is a truth I've come to know

(Chorus)
All the joy of life has only just begun
It renews with ev'ry rising of the sun
In the journey I walk each day
You've got a plan, You lead the way
The joy of life has only just begun

(Verse 2)
When the glory of a sunset
Fills my eyes at end of day
Red and orange fade to purple
As the moon arises
Though dark clouds may fill the night
And comforts of the day are gone
Joy'll rise up with a brighter dawn!

(Repeat Chorus2 times)
All the joy of life has only just begun
It renews with ev'ry rising of the sun
In the journey I walk each day
You've got a plan, You lead the way
The joy of life has only just begun

(Ending)
And still the very best is yet to come!
