Prayer for Joy - Traditional

Lord, fill my heart with joy—
not just happiness when things go well,

Help me to find joy in simple blessings,
in the beauty of creation,
in the love of family and friends,
and in the assurance of Your presence.
May the joy of the Lord be my strength,
and may it overflow to those around me.
Amen.
