Trading my sorrows (song)

I'm trading my sorrows

I'm trading my shame

I'm laying them down

For the joy of the Lord

I've traded my sickness

I've traded my pain

I've laid them down

For the joy of the Lord

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

For his joy is my strength

Though the sorrows may last for a night

Joy comes in the morning
