Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!
Philippians 4:4
The theme of joy is prominent in Philippians. The command to rejoice can always be obeyed, even in the midst of conflict, adversity, and deprivation, because joy rests not on favorable circumstances, but “in the Lord.”
Rejoice in the Lord always,
Do not worry about tomorrow.
Go to God in humble prayer
And give Him all your sorrows.
Rejoice and let your needs be known
For God is faithful, just and kind,
And His peace that surpasses understanding
Will guard your heart and mind.
Rejoice in your laughter,
Rejoice in your tears,
For in your rejoicing
Comes strength for your fears.
Rejoice in the Lord always,
His loving kindness we can’t measure.
Rejoice and be thankful for His love,
You'll have no greater treasure.

I know of no greater need today than the need for joy. Unexplainable, contagious joy. Outrageous joy.
