Is it really so mysterious how to take joy so serious that I can believe at length that the joy of the Lord is my strength?
Does joy mean humour or is that just a rumour?
Is there a method to this "madness" or is my humour really sadness?
The Lord puts laughter in our mouth from His "north" to our "south".
Does this cause our "south" to rise again?
Is this where our resurrection of joy begins?
Is this a question I ask of men or is this such a time
when my faith becomes kin?
Kin in such a way that I learn to hate sin?
Does hating sin remove the fun or is taking joy so serious that it's a pleasure in being a "son”?
