Rejoice in the Lord

I was going through some music tonight and I found this song. I thought it was very appropriate for what is going on in my life right now and offers some encouragement! (Read previous post if you are confused) Here are the lyrics:

Verse 1
God never moves without purpose or plan
When trying His servant and molding a man
Give thanks to the Lord though your testing seems long;
In darkness He giveth a song

Chorus
O rejoice in the Lord
He makes no mistake
He knoweth the end of each path that I take
For when I am tried and purified
I shall come forth as gold

Verse 2
I could not see through the shadows ahead
So I looked at the cross of my Saviour instead
I bowed to the Will of the Master that day,
Then peace came and tears fled away

Verse 3
Now I can see testing comes from above,
God strengthens His children and purges in love
My Father knows best, and I trust in His care
Through purging more fruit I will bear
