Emotions, The - Rejoice Lyrics
If the things you do are not pleasing you
It's time to take another point of view
You take the things you've learned
All that you know are real
And what you feel is your first concern
Rejoice in the things you know are right
You can rejoice
Make you feel real good inside
There may be times, oh, when you're in doubt
About the way, and just how to work it all out
You'll find the things you seek are within your reach
Your mind conceived it, your heart will believe it
Now that you've sacrificed and you've paid the price to make a better way in your life today
Rejoice
Ah Yeah
Rejoice
Ahh Yeah, yeah
There may be times, oh, when you're in doubt
About the way, and just how to work it all out
You'll find the things you seek are within your reach
Your mind conceived it, your heart will believe it
Now that you've sacrificed and you've paid the price to make a better way in your life today

Emotions, The Rejoice Comments
This song is so bad, especially in the 70's l used to play it to death! The music or the instruments are SICK!
Who is feeling this bass line? Damn!!
Ewf boys marching in the background totally killing it as always 💢💥💫🌟🔥
Chaka went for that groove in what you gonna do for me
The BEST female group of ALL TIME !!!
No, that would be The Supremes
Love this song! Written by The legendary Kieth Henderson CHICAGO!!!!
Bish yesssss🔥
Underrated chooon!
Sampled by Nate Dogg
The groove is so tight. The EWF musicians are all over this one.

Legendary Emotions! My Old School! I love you guys soooo much!!!!

Happy days, this is a CLASSIC.......ageless
MAC DRE ABCD
Take a listen to this music. It just works today as it did years ago. I'm hooked on these vocals. I see the light!
One of the greatest songs...ever! #AllTime #AnyEra #AnyGenre
As I look back over my life, I smile to have been blessed to grow up listening to great artists such as The Emotions. I was about nine(9) years old when I first heard The Emotions. Boy I miss the '70s!
D.J.Ron Hardy Is The Greatest Disco D.J.That Ever,Ever,I Mean Walked The Face The Earth,D.J.RONNIE 4 EVER & EVER & EVER,D.J.RON HARDY NOBODY COMES EVEN CLOSE,NON-HOUSE,SLOW LOW SNAKES,YEAP,YEAPYEAP!!!!!DJ RON HARDY 4 EVER!!!!!!!!

How did this get past me??!!
Wow! many compliments, and all deserving for the Emotions and this wonderful (nostalgic) song. REJOICE!!! Motivates me @ the beginning of my day.
LAWD this is fonky
love this song!!!!
Thank God for music! The best way to go back in time!!!!!!
I can't believe that it's taken me all of these years to discover this gem. Maurice White could do no wrong, with his production efforts. This entire album has stood the test of time, and I really enjoy listening to it. Every track is organic, which is what's missing from today's music scene. These girls can really sang!
Loved growing up with beautiful soul music. Nowadays too much nigga/bitch music. :(
"AUBREY, AUTUMN AND ARRAYA, IN THE FUTURE". MY GREAT-NIECES!!!☆☆☆♡♡♡+++
This was another one of my favorite songs!!!! These are sisters with the real voices.....
yes rejoice
I swear this is one of my FAVORITE groups of all-time! These were the songs in the '70's. I miss those times so dog-gone much.
You wanna buy a mood ring? 50 dollars a ring right here. just kidding...lol
One of my favorites by these real life sisters!!!
I feel you! :)
these sistas killed it!
Killed it? These ladies singed beautifully.
nate dogg, snoop dogg & warren g (213) sampled from this song on their song "gotta find a way"
I am stuck in time now!!!
10 th grade music man o man miss the great music of the GREAT EMOTIONS
Verdine did his thang on that bass tho
+seshta That's not Verdine.
+twainfunk57
Correction, David Sheilds, bass on Rejoice....wow
You are so right! That bass is hittin' on almost all of the songs by the Emotions! Heeeeyy! Lol! :)
This song is my joint and Wanda drives the vocals ALL the way home. LOVE LOVE LOVE the Emotions!!!
+Kevin Knighton
And U know this!!
I'm with you on that! :)
Kevin Knighton : A powerful vocal piece. Very uplifting.
Love this song,always loved the emotions.
YYYYYep!! ;)
R.I.P PEACE Nate Dogg
One of my favorite old school Albums. Special memories goes out to the Old Dollar Mill rd. crew South West Atl. Rejoice for the things God gas done for us all.
I still have this album and this was one of my favorite songs!!
SWeet music 2 ur ears yes sir
Thees sisters now they had some spunk REJOICE!!!
This song says it all
The fabulous Hutchinson Sisters. Wanda went off on this one. And the backing music is bumpin' (produced by Maurice White).
Unsung brought me here. I love it!
Nice! A landmark, pillar, in my personal journey to rejoicing.
I just got a moment to look at an episode of Unsung on my DVR. Thank you unsung and thank you for uploading this song. The Emotions were and are incredible!!! Rejoice!!!
This song is my personal mantra, the lyrics are so true and so applicable. Rejoice was recorded the year I was born... timeless message, LOVE IT.
I thought this was the Jones Girls.
Really enjoyed Unsung last night. The late 70s was The Bomb. These ladies right here were awesome.
Saw them do it Live,@ Bayfront center,with Commodores,Washington Jam Band,Trainrobbers,Child of Friendship,St.pete Fl 8/77
Gunter Butler
RIP Tyrone ( tiny ) Johnson, shout out to Gina Boy ,Tim, Speck and the rest of the Childs of Frienship Train Robber's Band and also Big shout outs to King and Ray Butler, Hiram Hazely and one of my closet friends lil Charles Davis ( a bass player - bass player ) and the rest of The Washington Jam Band.
This music is KICKIN'!!!
This is truly old school at its best- I personally Rejoice for LIFE, MY FAMILY and TRUE FRIENDS. Oh by the way for those of you that might not know it- Earth, Wind & Fire are playing the music on this great track (Rejoice) by the Emotions...
RAY PARKER JR. IS THE SHIT !
Love The Intro,Nothing can substitute THE EMOTIONS
my forever girls ....i hope that respects these women
Nope, not one. As a result, if an album did not have at least three cuts I really liked, it stayed in the store.
Gotta apologize to Pacific Street off 21st and Erie in Philly. I blasted this album until I could no longer play it.
Rejoice ladies. You are truly amazing.
WORD!!!!!
This album was truly anointed by the gods. Beautiful from beginning to end. Everyone n the hood knew every song
If I'm not mistaken, Rejoice goes something like this harmonically: G Maj7 - C-Maj7 - G Maj7 - C-Maj7 - B Aug - E-9 (stays here for a bit, nice and funky in the intro) - G/A - (verse): D Maj7 - G/A - D Maj7 - G/A - G Maj7 - C-Maj7 - G Maj7 - C/D - B/C# - (chorus): E-9 - G/A - (back to verse, repeat 2x, etc.) (There is just a bit of variation later, but that's pretty much the harmonic structure of the song. E minor 9 is the the BIG chord here in the chorus.)
Nate Dogg Find a way
The thing about this EWF produced album....There was not a bad track. You could play tRejoice from beginning to end. EWF worked it out. Not the same now with the artists of today.
You are SO right! Remember the group "Pockets?"
Gerard Williams. Yes indeed!. Come go with me. :)
brings back some of most fond memories of childhood
your right to correct any inconsistancies regarding information no matter if people notice or not because if is seems like a small detail to others there must be other reasons that dave, jim and louis are seldom mentioned regarding these wonderful recordings thanks for remembering them
Now this is real R&B. I had the album as a child and wore it out. It's wonderful to hear this tune again. Thanks for posting.
this was my jam finding this brought me to tears!!!! ty for posting
Sweet stuff right here! I love conscious music!
wow !!!!!
213 - gotta find a way
This is not EWF backing the Emotions. It's David Shields on bass, James Gadson on Drums and others. Verdine very seldom played on EWF sessions. When Louis Satterdfield was alive and playing with the Phoenix Horns "He" played bass on EWF sessions.
Nigga gotta find a way... Find a way to make some money!!!
yea three years ago.....naw naw jk lol
@shortyrock87
Pervis Staples of the Staples Singers discovered them after they released a record titled Somebody New in
Chicago. He took them to Stax Records and the rest is history.
saw them perform this on soul train this morning....had to bump this!!!!
This helped me through the hard times then and it still does it today....because "You find the thing you seek, within your reach, your mind conceives it, your heart believes. No matter what the world tries to take from you or this crazy economy and society....What God has for you it is for you....they cannot take anything without God's permission...and if he is permitting it, it must be for the greater good or for a reason to protect you. I say this because I am unemployed but not for long.
I love the wah-wah guitar at 2:02
Oh my God!! great song!! another product of Earth, Wind & Fire..
@mssquirrely I HAD THIS ALBUM WHEN I WAS YOUNGER AND PLAYED IT SO MUCH TILL IT SCRATCHED. THEN SOMEONE ACCIDENTLY STEPPED ON IT. I WAS PISSED!
This song was a B- SIDE, could have been worthy of an A-SIDE
quality....so want to see them in uk/europe,,does anyone know where they will be playing nxt? x
This album is the bomb!
REJOICE!!!
