Happiness is obeying my Lord,
And trusting He will care for me;
Happiness is helping others,
It fills a heart so generously.



Happiness is reading God's word,
And knowing His message well;
Happiness is the peace of God,
Knowing His love to tell.



Happiness is Jesus in my heart,
And knowing with no doubt;
He's also been here with me
From the very start.



Happiness is living for Jesus,
Living by His commands;
Happiness is spreading God's word
All over this glorious land.



Happiness is the joy of the Lord,
That fills my longing soul;
Happiness I have finally found,
It's in me now I know.
