JOY OF THE LORD
Sing my soul, my heart rejoice
Come marvel at God’s saving grace
Love explosion fill my being
Breaking out in glorious praise
To the glory of His name!
The joy of the Lord
The joy of the Lord is in me
So deep in me
The joy of the Lord, my strength shall be
The joy of the Lord
The joy of the Lord within me
You’ve birthed in me
The joy of the Lord, my song shall be
Jesus!
When the darkness feeds oppression
When we’re broken, suffering, weak
In our lives, Your power perfected
Jesus Christ, our victory
For the glory of Your name!
