Surprised By Joy

Carolyn Arends

4

Every once in a while on a summer night

The sunset glows and I see the light

And when the stars come out it dawns on me

There is holy ground underneath my feet

Chorus:

Surprised by joy

Awash in love

Just one taste of grace

And I'm overcome

You've got a way

Of breaking through

'Til I'm surprised by joy

I'm amazed by you

Just the other day when I kissed my son

I was blown away by what you've done

'Cause when he smiles at me with his toothless grin

All at once I see your hand on him

Chorus:

Surprised by joy

Awash in love

Just one taste of grace

And I'm overcome

You've got a way

Of breaking through

'Til I'm surprised by joy

I'm amazed by you

And when I least expect it

You surround me

You astound me with your love

Chorus:

Surprised by joy

Awash in love

Just one taste of grace

And I'm overcome

You've got a way

Of breaking through

'Til I'm surprised by joy

I'm amazed by you
