~Chorus~
I'm trading my sorrows
I'm trading my sh-ame
I'm laying them down, for the joy of the L-ord
I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my p-ain
I'm laying them down, for the joy of the L-ord

We say yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord am-en

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 str-ength

Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morn-ing

~Chorus~

(Repeat 1st verse)
(Yeah yeah yeah)
(Repeat 1st verse)
(Yeah yeah yeah)

Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morn-ing

I'm trading my sorrows
I'm trading my sh-ame
I'm laying them down, for the joy of the L-ord
Yeah yeah y-eah
I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my p-ain
I'm laying them down, for the joy of the L-ord

La la la-la la la-la la la-la la la
La la-la la la-la la la-la l-a
La la-la la la-la la la-la la la
Amen
(Yeah yeah yeah)
(2X)

(Repeat 2nd verse)

~Chorus~

La la la-la la la-la la la-la la la
La la-la la la-la la la-la l-a
La la-la la la-la la la-la la la
Amen
(Yeah yeah yeah)
(2X)
