Trading My Sorrows

I知 trading my sorrow.
I知 trading my shame.
I知 laying it down for the joy of the Lord.

I知 trading my sickness.
I知 trading my pain.
I知 laying it 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知 pressed but not crushed. Persecuted not abandoned.
Struck down but not destroyed.
I知 blessed beyond the curse for His promise will endure
And His joy痴 gonna be my strength.

Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morning.

(repeat all)
