Joy
by John Long

Album: Zealous

Verse 1
There was a moment in my life
When I just stopped and realized
If I just opened up my eyes
Everywhere I look, all I see is You
Then in what felt like a blink of time
I opened my eyes to find something electrifying
My old self was dying
And a new me was breaking through, ooh, oh, yeah
A new me was breaking through, ooh, oh, yeah

Pre-Chorus
I can't help but let the joy inside of me
Burst on out, burst on out, burst on out, burst on out
And I can't help but let the joy inside of me
Burst on out, burst on out, burst on out

Chorus
Joy
Joy (Burst on out)
Joy
Joy

Verse 2
There is a hope that's deep inside
Even through all the darkest nights
You say that I don't have to hide
'Cause everywhere I look, all I see is You

Pre-Chorus
I can't help but let the joy inside of me
Burst on out, burst on out, burst on out, burst on out
And I can't help but let the joy inside of me
Burst on out, burst on out, burst on out

Chorus
Joy
Joy (Burst on out)
Joy
Joy

Outro
A different kind of joy
A different kind of joy
That reaches into tragedy and opens up my victory
A different kind of joy
A different kind of joy
A joy that cannot be contained by prison bars or heavy chains
