Clark Sisters When Joy And Sorrow Meet Lyrics

There's a place of quiet stillness 'tween the light and shadows reach
Where the hurting and the hopeless seek everlasting peace
Words of men and songs of angels whisper comfort bittersweet
Mending grief and life eternal where joy and sorrow meet
There is a place where hope remains
In crowns of thorns and crimson stains
And tears that fall on Jesus' feet
Where joy and sorrow meet
There's a place the lost surrender and the weary will retreat
Full of grace and mercy tender in times of unbelief
For wounded there is healing, strength is given to the weak
Broken hearts find love redeeming where joy and sorrow meet There's a place of thirst and hunger where the roots of faith grow deep
And there is rain and rolling thunder when the road is rough and steep
There is hope in desperation there is victory in defeat
At the cross of restoration where joy and sorrow meet

I love this song. For me it is a modern day hymn reminding us of the hope we all have in the cross of Christ. That place where we learn to surrender, learn to believe, find rest, strength, restoration, learn to let go, cry our hearts out, wrapping up all our emotions, both good and bad, and meet with our Savior, Jesus.
