What will turn our sorrows to joy?

What will turn our sorrows to joy?
Abounding thanks, unceasing praise!
Anxiety succumbs to peace
By prayers with thanks that never cease.

What’s the will of God for our days?
Always rejoice, at all times pray;
In everything, our thanksgiving
To God for bountiful blessings!

Turn away, give thanks, yes! Give thanks!
Never obey what feelings say
And as we turn, we’ll be released,
For thanking God has set us free!
