Joy wakens at the voice of Truth,
As wakes the bird to day,
And woe that shadowed deep the heart,
Defeated, fades away.
Joy waked by Truth within thine heart
No man can take from thee,
For God is Truth, and where God is
Joy dwelleth constantly.
From the October 1939 issue of The Christian Science Journal
Joy wakens at the voice of Truth,
As wakes the bird to day,
And woe that shadowed deep the heart,
Defeated, fades away.
Joy waked by Truth within thine heart
No man can take from thee,
For God is Truth, and where God is
Joy dwelleth constantly.
