The Joy of the Lord

V1 Though the tears may fall, my song will rise, my song will rise to You Though my heart may fail, my song will rise, my song will rise to You While there’s breath in my lungs, I will praise You, Lord In the dead of night, I’ll lift my eyes, I’ll lift my eyes to You When the waters rise, I’ll lift my eyes, I’ll lift my eyes to You While there’s hope in my heart, I will praise You, Lord CH The joy of the Lord is my strength, the joy of the Lord is my strength In the darkness I’ll dance, in the shadows I’ll sing The joy of the Lord is my strength V2 When I cannot see You with my eyes, let faith arise to You When I cannot feel Your hand in mine, let faith arise to You God of mercy and love, I will praise You, Lord Oh You shine with glory Lord of light, I feel alive with You In Your presence now I come alive, I am alive with You There is strength when I say, I will praise You, Lord BR When sorrow comes my way, You are the shield around me Always You remain, like courage in the fight I hear You call my name, Jesus, I am coming Walking on the waves, reaching for Your light
