|
I look at my life
|
And I still can't believe it
|
How did I make it
|
To where I stand now?
|
You don't understand
|
I was up against the whole world
|
And all I could feel was it breaking me down
|
But out of a hopeless situation
|
There came a song of redemption
|
|
Life may push my heart to the limit
|
But I won't let go
|
Of the joy in my soul
|
¡®Cause everything can change in a minute
|
And the world may try
|
But they're never gonna steal my joy
|
|
So get up, stand up
|
And rise above it
|
If every plan
|
That you've made goes so wrong
|
You don't have to give in to the struggle
|
You may be down
|
But don't stay there for long
|
In every hopeless situation
|
There is a song of redemption
|
|
The world may say
|
You're never gonna make it
|
The world may say
|
You're not strong enough to take it
|
But I don't care
|
¡®Cause the joy of the Lord is real
|
And they're never gonna steal my joy
|

(Never Gonna) Steal My Joy
