Glad

The state of being glad; a pleased or joyful condition of mind; cheerfulness. A feeling of joy and exhilaration, usually of a strong yet quiet and temperate character.

Gladness, Joy, Pleasure, Delight, Triumph. Gladness is less often used of a weak feeling than glad. It generally stands for a feeling that is strong but tranquil, and showing itself chiefly in the face. Hence it is often used poetically of certain aspects of nature. Joy is more vivid and demonstrative.

This distinction between gladness and joy is abundantly illustrated in the Bible. Pleasure is the most general of these words, representing all degrees of feeling. And vicious or harmful indulgence as well as harmless enjoyment. In its primary sense it indicates a feeling less distinctively cheerful than gladness and less profound or demonstrative than joy, but with much of glow.

Delight is a high degree of pleasure; formerly the word was much used for low pleasure (see quotation from Milton under delight), but it has been redeemed so that it is now rarely used for anything but an ecstatic pleasure or joy.
