Joy

verse 1

How many days have I felt this way and
How many nights have I prayed
I am trying to shake this
Trying to change my bad mood
I'm trying to shake my bad attitude

pre-chorus

This feeling's just a feeling
It's not my everything
This feeling's just a feeling
It doesn't define me

chorus

There is joy
Joy to be found in You
Joy
That Your promises are true
So take courage, my soul
Reach out and grab hold
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord

verse 2

How many ways have I tried to cheer up and
How many times have I failed
What's the point in pretending
I can be fine without You
When You and I both know
That's not true

pre-chorus

This feeling's just a feeling
It's not my everything
This feeling's just a feeling
It doesn't define me

chorus

There is joy
Joy to be found in You
Joy
That Your promises are true
So take courage, my soul
Reach out and grab hold
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord

bridge + tag

I'm irritated by everything today
And I'm frustrated by the roadblocks in my way
I feel like I should feel different than I feel
Oh Lord, Your Spirit alone can heal
And bring
Joy
Joy
Oh

chorus 1

There is joy
Joy to be found in You
Joy
That Your promises are true
So take courage, my soul
Reach out and grab hold
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord

chorus 2 + tag

Oh, Joy
Joy in You
Joy
For who You are and what You do
You always do more
And You're my reward
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord
There is joy
There is joy in the Lord
