I was born into a broken world I've had ups and downs And crazy things have occur (Pre) 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 (Verse 2) I was lost but now I found That Happiness ain't joy Just ask around (Pre 2) It's nothing circumstantial It's something supernatural I cannot contain (Bridge) The Joy of the Lord is my strength Nothing can take that away The Joy of the Lord is my strength Hallelujah
