INTRO
Joy, joy, joy, joy!
Whoa, yeah
CHORUS
Unspeakable speakable
The meaning’s unreachable
I’ll go where he leads me to
More synonyms, I’m gon need a few
CHORUS B
Lately I’ve had a hard time ain’t been satisfied when I testify
Wanna make sure I’m sharp when I make the point of you
When them blessings come through, I’m clear then
And even more clear when you do it again
They must understand the point of you
V1
The last word doesn’t come from the doctor
Who’s the world that the doctor comes out of
Just keep praying beyond the last hour
Now you witness the procedure of power
B SECTION
Mumbling to myself, must think I’m crazy
But I’m humbling myself, and I’m giving praise
Fumbling God in myself, they don’t know what I’m saying
If you’re crumbling and need help, I know who can raise you
CHORUS
V2
Said I couldn’t change that
That’s another life
But I scrubbed like Ajax
I stayed on my grind
I was way way back now I’m front of line
Was I s’posed to say that?
Ain’t tryin’ to undermine
B SECTION
CHORUS
BRIDGE
Dark situations can make them much brighter, yeah yeah
If your spirits way down He can make them much lighter, yeah
You’re just taking off you can go higher
Now let the joyful water fill your eyes up
CHORUS B
Joy, joy, joy, joy!
