1 How do I name this feeling,
This amazing emotion engulfing me.
What do I call this happiness,
That's filling every inch of me.
5 How can I state,
The joy that fills my heart.
Does such a word even exist,
To express what dwells in my soul.
It's not love, it's not joy, it's not peace,
10 That makes my spirit soar.
It's so much more, 
than any dialect can express
Yet it's so simple,
As to take but a breath.
15 The word isn't wonder, nor is it awe,
Neither is it simply amazing
Yet all of these describe the note
That begins the song in my chest.
What can I call you,
20 This nameless word like joy.
Lord can it be given,
To describe it to me?
Does it even exist
In a form to roll off mans tounge?
25 If so can you send it to me,
So that all can know,
What has filled my soul.
