Chorus - I have this joy -- Joy unspeakable 

That flows inside -- full of Glory -- I just can't hide 

One thing I know -- and it's for sure 

That you can't take -- my joy 

Material things can be taken away 

By the ones that I'm slow to pay 

Some even try and will deceive 

To take my faith away but never 

succeed 

There's something else -- I know -- And it's for sure 

That you can't take my joy 



This joy that I have removes all my doubts 

This joy calms my fears 

Oh what sweet such wonderful joy 

It lifts you up -- and dries all my tears 



This joy makes me love all your enemies 

This joy makes me love all your friends 



It'll put a smile on your face -- when there's somebody always trying to take your place 



This joy that I have the world didn't give it to me 

This joy that i have the world can't take it away 

It'll make me love everybody 

He'll put a smile on your face 



One thing I know -- and it's for sure 

That you can't take -- my joy 



Can't take it -- You can't take my joy 

Can't take it -- You can't take my joy
