"I'm trading my sorrows   I'm trading my shame   I'm laying them down   For the joy of the Lord      I'm trading my sickness   I'm trading my pain   I'm laying them down   For the joy of the Lord      We Say   Yes Lord yes Lord    Yes yes Lord   Yes Lord yes Lord   Yes yes Lord   Yes Lord yes Lord   Yes yes Lord Amen      I am pressed but not crushed   Persecuted not abandoned   Struck down but not destroyed   I am blessed beyond the curse   For His promise will endure   That His joy's gonna be my strength      Though the sorrow may last for the night   His joy comes with the morning      Bridge: yeah oh let the joy of the lord come   and be my strength once again      la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la      repeat lyrics   "
