Lyrics: Maverick City Music – Joy to the World / Joy of the Lord ft. Naomi Raine & Todd Galberth
I’m pulling on joy from Heaven’s reserve
He’s stored up enough, for every winter I’m served
I’m seeing beyond my circumstance
This joy that I have is my Inheritance
Joy, this is the joy of the Lord
The chorus says, the joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
The joy, oh, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Oh-oh-oh, He is my hope (Yes, He is)
The joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
There is a Savior in the valley place
He’s walking beside me and He knows my pain (Yeah)
God, the beginning and the end
God, right there in the midst of it
Joy, this is the Joy of the Lord (Sing it again, joy)
Oh, joy, this is the joy of the Lord
The joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength (Yes, it is)
The joy, oh, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Oh-oh-oh, He is my hope
The joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength (Oh)
Mm, there’s gonna be glory
There’s gonna be glory
There will be glory after this
No need to worry
In this present suffering
There will be glory after this (Sing it out)

Oh, the joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
The joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
Oh-oh-oh, He is my hope
The joy, the joy
The joy of the Lord is my strength
There is a King seated on His throne
Prepared a place that I’ll call my home
And there I will see Him face to face
He’ll wipe every tear from my face
Joy, this is the Joy of the Lord
Oh, I’m talking about joy
This is the joy of the Lord-all
Oh, I’m talking about joy
This is the joy of the Lord
Oh, sing it from the hilltop
