"Joy." lyrics

I declare and I decree
Any chain that has been holding me
Any evil tongue that whispers in these ears
I said I rebuke you
You must leave my life, you are not welcome here

So, loose your grip and set me free
Heaven hear me now, I want to be
Free of every pain and every fear
This sadness has a grip on me, and it must disappear

I'm letting it wash over me (Wash all over me)
I'm letting it all wash away (All of it wash away)
All of it, all of it
It must let go of me today

Cover me with Your feathers, Father
Shelter me with Your wings
I may cry through the night, I may cry through the night, I may cry through the night, but my joy comes in the morning

Joy, joy
I may cry through the night, but my joy comes in the morning
My joy, oh, my joy
Joy
Oh, my joy comes in the morning, my joy comes in the morning, my joy comes in the—

Though I may cry in the night, but my joy comes in the morning
Let me see you clap your hands and help me sing
I declare I am somebody, I declare I am somebody (I say)
I declare there will be joy, I declare there will be joy, I declare there will be joy (I will, I will, I will)

Oh, listen to my sister sing

Oh, I don't usually tend to cry
'Stead, I tend to bury it inside
It's been hard for me to fall asleep
Building burdens up to kill my dreams

But I know when I'm feeling alone
When my spirit gets low
I know there's someone out there who's been praying for me

There's a war in your mind
Your sorrows may endure
But the light comes with the morning
It's what you're made for
It can't hide
It's supernatural

I may cry through the night, but my joy comes in the morning

Here comes my, here comes my, here comes my joy
Here comes my, all of my joy
I may cry through the night, but my joy comes in the morning
Here comes my joy there, here comes my, my joy, oh, my joy (Here comes my joy there)
She'll cry through the night, but my joy comes in the morning
My joy comes in the morning, my joy comes in the—
See you, ah

Though I may cry in the night, but my joy comes in the morning
Let me see you clap your hands and help me sing

I declare I am somebody, I declare I am somebody (I say)
I declare there will be joy, I declare there will be joy (I will, I will)
Oh, more joy, be more joy, be more joy

Though I may cry in the night, but my joy comes in the morning
Let me see you clap your hands and help me sing

I declare I am somebody, I declare I am somebody (I say)
I declare there will be joy, I declare there will be joy (I will, I will)
I declare there will be joy, I declare there will be joy
