Joy River

Can you hear me lord
Can you hear me
Can you hear me lord
Oh, can you hear me

‘Been cryin’ out, cryin’ out your name
Was I callin’ you, callin’ you in vain?
Oh, can you hear me lord, hear me lord?
Oh, can you hear me?

I got joy like a river in my soul
I got joy like a river in my soul
I got
Joy like a river
I got
Joy like a river
I got
Joy like a river in my soul

I can see clear the mountain right ahead
(See clear)
I can see clear the troubles right ahead
(See clear)
But I know my joy will stay
Always with me along the way
Cause I got joy like a river in my soul

Some done told me that I do not belong
Some done told me that you do not belong
But we know what lights the way
And will show us where to lay
Cause we got joy like a river in our souls
We got joy like a river in our souls
We got
Joy like a river

(Let the joy take you away)
