Joy or Sorrow

about

By Terri Hendrix
Part English and part Gaelic chorus

lyrics

Without doubt
And without fear

May you find
Some comfort here

May there be hope
To help you cope

When what you need
Is nowhere near



Make your mark
Unto these years

Shape your world
With salt and tears

Carry on
When your will has gone

Be it joy
Or sorrow

Given time 

Given faith

Given courage
To embrace

Changes
As they each take place

Be it joy
Or sorrow



Grab this earth
Just like a wheel

You’ll eat some dirt
As you get the feel

Keep it sane
Keep it real

Be it joy
Or sorrow

Amid the noise
Amid the haste

May your soul take root
In open space

Rise above your worries
With truth and grace

Be it joy
Or sorrow

Given time 

Given faith

Given courage
To embrace

Changes
As they each take place

Be it joy
Or sorrow
