Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now the light has left the dark I fear
When I reach for him and he's not here
Many times have come when he is gone
Yet I find the strength to carry on
[Verse 2]
But then I turn around and everything is changed
He will reach for me and lay his hands upon my face
But when I feel his touch, my love will overflow
He is real to me, now I know
[Verse 3]
He is the joy
[Verse 4]
I can't explain about this love I feel
I know it's real, so here's the deal
Sometimes I give up, I don't believe
And it breaks my heart so painfully
[Verse 5]
But then I turn around and everything is changed
He will reach for me and lay his hands upon my face
But when I feel his touch, my love will overflow
He is real to me, now I know
[Verse 6]
He is the joy
In my morning, in my evening
Every day and night, I feel the joy
When I'm lonely
Something tells me
He's my guiding light
[Verse 7]
He is the joy
He is the joy
He is the joy
He is the joy
[Verse 8]
He takes the pain and the strife
Every day of my life
He takes the pain and the strife
Every day of my life
[Verse 9]
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
My life
[Verse 10]
He takes the pain and the strife (Joy)
Every day of my life (Joy)
He takes the pain and the strife (Joy)
Every day of my life (Joy)
[Verse 11]
Joy
Every day of my life
Joy
[Verse 12]
Joy
Every day of my life
Joy
