A Levite Singer Walks Toward Zion at Dawnby emmanuel_higgins

Psalms 43:4

Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

The living God Himself is the joy of the soul. He is its rejoicing, not merely the giver of joy but its very substance. To go to Him is therefore to enter into exceeding gladness.
