This Joy by Onitsha

I can feel the sun shining on my face
Just another day that my Lord has made
I can’t wait to get outside
Such a good feeling just be alive
I know obstacles my come, but they won’t take away from my fun
So in spite of – regardless of- Tia can’t afford to lose

This joy that I have the world didn’t give it me.
And this joy that I have I won’t everybody to see
That this joy that I have the world didn’t give it to me
This joy that I have the world didn’t give it – the world can’t take it away.

All ya’ll haters trying to hate on me and knock me off my feet
I may fall down sometimes but I get back up – you best believe
I’m the girl that’s gonna smile at you, laugh with you, be myself and keep it real with you
That’s how I roll. I’ve got his joy down deep in my soul

This joy that I have the world didn’t give it me.
And this joy that I have I won’t everybody to see
That this joy that I have the world didn’t give it to me
This joy that I have the world didn’t give it – the world can’t take it away.

I have a roof over my head
Though I should be I’m not dead
He gives me love that’s undeserved
Even when I stray from his word
And I’m glad you looked beyond my faults and you saw all my needs
I can’t help but praise your name for making me so happy

Musical interlude

This joy that I have the world didn’t give it me.
And this joy that I have I won’t everybody to see
That this joy that I have the world didn’t give it to me
This joy that I have the world didn’t give it – the world can’t take it away.
