"Joy In The Battle" lyrics
I'm just man who's lost some things and left with memories
I'm just man who's growing older
I've made some friends along the way, I've made some enemies
But I pray they're all good in their soul
I've seen the reasons, and the meanings and the seasons change
I've seen the magic come and go
I fell in love with shiny things I thought would warm me up
I felt the heat when it turned cold
All over me, you want my peace but you won't get it
I hear that devil steady knockin' at my door
I'm just man who's lost some things and left with memories
Still I believe there's so much more
'Cause I've got joy in the battle
I've got joy in my victory
I keep my eyes to the Heavens
So my joy never slips from me
You shouldn't let yourself get tangled up in worry
'Cause that kind of living takes its toll
You gotta take that pencil back, rewrite your story
And write the best one ever told
All over me, you want my peace but you won't get it
I hear that devil steady knockin' at my door
I'm just man who's lost some things and left with memories
Still I believe there's so much more
'Cause I've got joy in the battle
I've got joy in my victory
I keep my eyes to the Heavens
So my joy never slips from me
I've got joy in the battle
I've got Joy on this journey set for me
Oh, and when they see me coming
They gon' see I got this joy all over me
Have you ever seen a man dance with hell
Quick on his tracks? Ain't looking back
I've seen a lady scare the devil
With the way she moves her feet, now, look at that
Have you ever seen a man dance with hell
Quick on his tracks? Ain't looking back
That pretty lady scared the devil
With the way she moves her feet, now, look at that
I feel it all over me
Joy in the battle
I've got joy in my victory
I keep my eyes to the Heavens
So my joy never slips from me
I've got joy in the battle
I've got joy on this journey set for me
Oh, and when they see me coming
They gon' see I got this joy all over me
'Cause I've got
Joy in the battles
Joy in my victories
When I keep my eyes to the Heavens
My joy never slips from me
I'm just man who's growing older
I've made some friends along the way, I've made some enemies
But I pray they're all good in their soul
I've seen the reasons, and the meanings and the seasons change
I've seen the magic come and go
I fell in love with shiny things I thought would warm me up
I felt the heat when it turned cold
All over me, you want my peace but you won't get it
I hear that devil steady knockin' at my door
I'm just man who's lost some things and left with memories
Still I believe there's so much more
'Cause I've got joy in the battle
I've got joy in my victory
I keep my eyes to the Heavens
So my joy never slips from me
You shouldn't let yourself get tangled up in worry
'Cause that kind of living takes its toll
You gotta take that pencil back, rewrite your story
And write the best one ever told
All over me, you want my peace but you won't get it
I hear that devil steady knockin' at my door
I'm just man who's lost some things and left with memories
Still I believe there's so much more
'Cause I've got joy in the battle
I've got joy in my victory
I keep my eyes to the Heavens
So my joy never slips from me
I've got joy in the battle
I've got Joy on this journey set for me
Oh, and when they see me coming
They gon' see I got this joy all over me
Have you ever seen a man dance with hell
Quick on his tracks? Ain't looking back
I've seen a lady scare the devil
With the way she moves her feet, now, look at that
Have you ever seen a man dance with hell
Quick on his tracks? Ain't looking back
That pretty lady scared the devil
With the way she moves her feet, now, look at that
I feel it all over me
Joy in the battle
I've got joy in my victory
I keep my eyes to the Heavens
So my joy never slips from me
I've got joy in the battle
I've got joy on this journey set for me
Oh, and when they see me coming
They gon' see I got this joy all over me
'Cause I've got
Joy in the battles
Joy in my victories
When I keep my eyes to the Heavens
My joy never slips from me
