Joy, Joy, God's Great Joy

// Joy, joy, God's great joy
Joy, joy, down in my soul
Sweet, beautiful, soul-saving joy
Oh, joy, joy in my soul //

Early in the morning, before the break of day
I asked the Lord to make me whole
He holds me and the Lord keeps me
Oh, joy, joy in my soul

When I get weak and I can't go on
I feel all my hope, all my joy is gone
Late in the midnight hour I talk to my God
And He gives me joy, joy in my soul

One of these ol' mornings, it won't be very long
You just might look for me, but I'm going on home
I'm going up to glory where I'm gonna sing and shout
Oh, joy, joy in my soul

Oh, joy, joy in my soul
The Master's joy
My Savior's joy
The lily of the valley, joy
Alpha and Omega, joy
In the midnight hour, joy
He gives me strength and power, joy
No food on the table, joy
I know that He is able, joy

Oh, joy, joy in my soul
