I was born into a broken world
I’ve had ups and downs
And crazy things have occur

Then suddenly I knew ya
It felt like` hallelujah
When I heard you say

Welcome to the joy
The love that never ends
Where the grace of God renews again and again

I was lost but now I found
That Happiness ain’t joy
just ask around

It’s nothing circumstantial
It’s something supernatural
I cannot contain

The Joy of the Lord is my strength
Nothing can take that away
The Joy of the Lord is my strength
Hallelujah
