Somethin' deep inside that makes me smile
When otherwise I would cry in hopeless wonder, 'cause I have no peace inside
Joy lifts me up and takes me through, it's so real, I'm tellin' you
So many trails I've endured, God has given me the cure
I have a joy, a joy that's unspeakable
It soothes my doubts when the way gets hard
Although I lived in sin, He cleansed my heart that he lives within
And saved my soul from a burnin' hell, Christ lives in me now
This joy that I have (no, the world didn't give this joy to me)
This joy that I have (and this world can't take it away)
This joy that I have (the world didn't give it to me, no, no, no)
This joy that I have (the world didn't give in)
I found a friend who's all the world to me
His love is so ever true, I love to tell how
He had grown me out and changed my life
With Christ in my heart, without a doubt, I'm satisfied
Now I am saved from the sin
And hard leanin' on His mighty arm
He secured my soul each day in every way
I know He'll guide at me (oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh)
This joy that I have (you didn't give it to me)
This joy that I have (and you cannot take it away)
This joy that I have (this world didn't give it to me)
This joy that I have (the world didn't give in)
Nothin' in this world can take the place
Of this joy and amazin' grace (amazin' grace)
I loosed my shackles and He set me free
I didn't deserve all that He's done at me
He gives us joy (Jesus)
Unspeakable joy (Jesus)
What a marvelous joy (Jesus)
He gives a joy that's unspeakable (I love Jesus)
What a friend I have in Jesus (Jesus)
All my sins and griefs He'll bear (Jesus)
This joy gives me everythin' I need (Jesus)
All I have to do is take it to Him in prayer (Jesus)
I love and I love Him (Jesus)
He gives me joy (Jesus)
When I'm sad and when I'm lonely, I have joy (Jesus)
Because I know He is my all (provide the future)
My all (I'm gon' have it done)
I don't have to worry (provide the future)
Because He takes care of me
I know, I know and I know (Jesus)
I know where my strength comes from
I know where my joy comes from (Jesus)
It's in Jesus
It's in Jesus (Jesus)
I can lean on Him
I can depend on Him
A wonderful Counselor
His name, His name is Jesus
