Drink Deeply (Rejoice in the Lord)



Rejoice in the Lord always-For the Lord is glorified
When we pursue our joy in Him-And know our soul is satisfied.
Our joy in God will make our praise -An honor to our King
When in His glory we delight-We bring our finest offering.

Be glad in the glories of the Lord-Be filled and lift your voice
Immersed within unbounded grace-Drink deeply and rejoice!

Dawning on our understanding-He reveals Himself by grace
A treasure deep within our hearts-As we long to seek His face
So we pursue our deepest joy-Take pleasure in His light
And in that joy our God is pleased-We mirror His delight.

Be glad in the glories of the Lord-Be filled and lift your voice
Immersed within unbounded grace-Drink deeply and rejoice!

True worship yields our very heart and strength and mind and soul
We exalt God as our hearts exult-Then worship is made whole.
We apprehend His beauty-Awed by his power and might
We recognize and understand-When spirit and truth unite

Be glad in the glories of the Lord Be filled and lift your voice
Immersed within unbounded grace Drink deeply and rejoice!

So let Authentic praise abound-In true consummate pleasure
Extol the fame of His Great Name-As your most precious treasure
God manifests His worth to us, Gods glory and our good meet
The essence of true worship sees our joy made complete

Be glad in the glories of the Lord Be filled and lift your voice
Immersed within unbounded grace Drink deeply and rejoice!

Finally, my brothers, rejoice in the Lord. (Philippians 3:1)
