Lyrics

I might be
Halfway through this valley and my eyes just can’t see
A quick way out it might seem
Life’s got it out for me like I’m in way too deep
But I have found
Every single circumstance I can place in greater hands I won’t let my trouble bring me down

Chorus
I’ve got joy down in my soul
I’m gonna take it everywhere I go
Not gonna worry about what I don’t know
I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy here in my heart
Waving like a torch fighting off the dark
In the jet black night I’m gonna see the stars I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy joy joy

So I’ll just cast my cares won’t sink into despair
I won’t find answers there only doubt

Every single circumstance I can place in greater hands God I know You’ll never let me down

Chorus
I’ve got joy down in my soul
I’m gonna take it everywhere I go
Not gonna worry about what I don’t know
I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy here in my heart
Waving like a torch fighting off the dark
In the jet black night I’m gonna see the stars I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy joy joy

It’s gonna be my strength be my truth
Gonna light the way and see me through
It’s gonna be my hope be my shield
Gonna lift me up no matter how I feel

It’s gonna be my strength be my truth
Gonna light the way and see me through
It’s gonna be my hope be my shield
Gonna lift me up no matter how I feel

Chorus
I’ve got joy down in my soul
I’m gonna take it everywhere I go
Not gonna worry about what I don’t know
I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy here in my heart
Waving like a torch fighting off the dark
In the jet black night I’m gonna see the stars I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy joy joy
I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy joy joy I’ll be alright as long as I’ve got joy
