Surprised By Joy - Carolyn Arends

Every once in a while on a summer night 
The sunset glows and I see the light 
And when the stars come out it dawns on me 
There is holy ground underneath my feet 

Chorus:
Surprised by joy 
Awash in love 
Just one taste of grace 
And I'm overcome 
You've got a way 
Of breaking through 
'Til I'm surprised by joy 
I'm amazed by you 

Just the other day when I kissed my son 
I was blown away by what you've done 
'Cause when he smiles at me with his toothless grin 
All at once I see your hand on him 

Chorus:
Surprised by joy 
Awash in love 
Just one taste of grace 
And I'm overcome 
You've got a way 
Of breaking through 
'Til I'm surprised by joy 
I'm amazed by you 

And when I least expect it 
You surround me 
You astound me with your love 

Chorus:
Surprised by joy 
Awash in love 
Just one taste of grace 
And I'm overcome 
You've got a way 
Of breaking through 
'Til I'm surprised by joy 
I'm amazed by you
