Happiness is something
we create in our mind,
It’s not something you search for
and so seldom find–
It’s just waking up
and beginning the day
By counting our blessings
and kneeling to pray–
It’s giving up thoughts
that breed discontent
And accepting what comes
as a “gift heaven-sent”–
It’s giving up wishing
for things we have not
And making the best of
whatever we’ve got–
It’s knowing that life
is determined for us,
And pursuing out tasks
without fret, fume, or fuss–
For it’s by completing
what God gives us to do
That we find real contentment
and happiness, too.
