From Pain to Joy |
All of my bad times are behind me |
Nothing but good love here to remind me |
Through all my trials, you are my best friend |
My heart was bleeding and you just took me in |
I’m so glad I got a second chance to love |
You took me from pain, to joy |
Unspeakable joy, unspeakable joy |
You took me from pain, to joy |
Unspeakable joy, unspeakable joy |
Now there is a bright light in me that’s shining |
Got in my feet so I can keep climbing |
Up any mountain that is before me |
Cuz you say you love me, what’s more you adore me |
Feels good to get a second chance to love |
You took me from pain, to joy |
Unspeakable joy, unspeakable joy |
You took me from pain, to joy |
Unspeakable joy, unspeakable joy |
Lord I was feelin' so bad, I was always sad |
I didn’t have no money, nowhere to go |
Friends… should say who I thought was my friends |
They wouldn’t answer my phone calls |
I was walking pregnant in the snow trying to get a record deal |
You know how bad it can get sometimes |
Never thought I’d get out of pain |
And I know a lot of you felt the same |
But I’m standing here today to testify |
I got joy in the morning |
I got joy in the evening |
I got joy in the midnight hour |
I got joy, joy, joy… |
So much joy |
I got so much joy |
See one day I was walking along the street with my head down so low |
This brother stopped me, pat me on the shoulder and told me it ought not to be |
so low |
He took his little hand and lifted up me chin |
And to tell the truth I’ve been looking up ever since then |
I ain’t seen my feet since I don’t know when |
I got joy in the morning |
I got joy in the evening |
I got joy, joy, joy… |
So much joy, so much joy |
Oh, I hope I never have to sing about pain again |
And somebody oughta say amen (amen) |
I bet it feels good to feel good |
It feels nice to feel nice |
I knew you were looking out for me Lord |
But sometimes it just got so hard |
I know the Lord |
I know the Lord would renew my strength, but I was getting a little impatient |
Cuz I have been waiting so long |
And I had just been done so long |
But now I’ve got joy |
