May You Find Joy is sung by Womensong of Asheville. This song was written after our dear friend Meta Racine-Bowers was killed in an automobile accident. Meta was a dear friend of our Daughter Claire who lost several friends that year in tragic accidents. The lyrics speak about the pain of loss. I gave permission for the refrain to be changed for this version, but the lyrics below are the original. In the video only verse 2 and 3 are heard. This song was written in 2006.
May you find Joy in the darkest hour
Of the lonely path and the deepest woe
May you find calm on the open sea,
In the storm above and the fire below.
Then may the smiling face of God
Shine on your journey as you go.
On this earthly plane we can hardly see
Our eyes are blind and our hearts are bound
But there awaits for our unbound soul
An ocean of love waiting to be found
Then may the smiling face of God
Smile on your journey as you go
And when you cast in the Ocean of Love
Your heavy heart only God can know
And when at last after toil and pain
You are lifted out of this passing show
Then may the smiling face of God
Smile on your journey as you go.
