The world didn’t give it
And it can’t take it away
What’s down in my soul
Joy that won’t let go
In every season
It will never fade
What’s down in my soul
Joy that won’t let go
Darkness may come
Storms may rage
One thing’s for sure, this I know
The joy of the Lord is my strength
The louder I sing the more joy You bring
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Weeping may come but it won’t steal my joy
I’ve tasted and seen
Of the real thing
What’s down in my soul
Joy that won’t let go
The garment of praise
On my heavy hands
What’s down in my soul
Joy that won’t let go
Darkness may come
Storms may rage
One thing’s for sure, this I know
The joy of the Lord is my strength
The louder I sing the more joy You bring
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Weeping may come but it won’t steal my joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
The louder I sing the more joy You bring
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Weeping may come but it won’t steal my joy
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
Hallelujah
Joy like the river
I feel it rising
Come overtake us
Hallelujah
You turn my mourning into dancing
My sorrow into singing
Shout it out louder
Hallelujah
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
Hallelujah
Joy like the river
I feel it rising
Come overtake us
Hallelujah
You turn my mourning into dancing
My sorrow into singing
Shout it out louder
Hallelujah
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
O the joy of the Lord is my strength
Hallelujah
Joy like the river
I feel it rising
Come overtake us
Hallelujah
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
You turn my mourning into dancing
Joy like the river
I feel it rising
I feel it rising
I feel it rising
Joy like the river
I feel it rising
Come overtake us
Hallelujah
