Trading My Sorrows

I'm trading my sorrow
I'm trading my shame
I'm laying them down
for the joy of the Lord.

I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying them down
for the joy of the Lord.
Chorus
And we say, yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord, Amen.

I'm pressed but not crushed
persecuted not abandoned,
Struck down but not destroyed.
I'm blessed beyond the curse
for his promise will endure,
And his joy's gonna be my strength.

Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morning.
(Repeat 1st & 2nd stanza)
(Repeat Chorus 2X)

La la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la, Amen.
