One day I was walking in a world of sin
No rest for my weary soul
And then I met a man who said
He'd be my friend
Then all my burdens He did roll
God took those worldy desires
Gave me heavenly fire
Now I've got a brand new goal
And since I met this man called Jesus Christ
I've got the joy joy joy in my soul!
Joy in my heart, Joy in my mind
Joy since that happy day
Joy in my hands, Joy in my feet
Joy in every way
God took those worldly desires
Gave me heavenly fire
Now I've got a brand new goal
And since I met this man called Jesus Christ
I've got the joy joy joy in my soul!
Joy joy joy
Joy joy joy
Joy joy joy
Joy!
I got my eyes on Jesus
Got my mind made up
I tell it everywhere I go
Ain't nobody gonna turn me around
'Cause Jesus is in control
God took those worldly desires
Gave me heavenly fire
Now I've got a brand new goal
And since i met this man called Jesus Christ
I've got the joy in my soul!
Joy in my heart, Joy in my mind
Joy since that happy day
Joy in my hands, Joy in my feet
Joy in every way
God took those worldly desires
Gave me heavenly fire
Now I've got a brand new goal
And since i met this man called Jesus Christ
I've got the joy joy joy in my soul!
Joy joy joy
