Don’t Take Your Joy Lyrics by Virtue

Get Ready!

0

[Verse 1:]
I was wrong, I'll be the first to admit
I wasn't strong, at times I wanted to quit
I let You down and I know that it ain't right
But living without You I can see
That life just can't be for me
Walking around trying to play the part
Down inside no one could see my broken heart
Feeling like I'm bound, but I really wanna be free
What I'm really trying to say is that
You can't take Your joy from me
[Chorus:]
Don't take your joy from me
Without it where would I be?
Like a ship tossed and driven
No reason for living;
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
[Verse 2:]
Your joy is my strength I know
Without it I don't even know where would I go?
Now I understand what You really mean to me
They can say what they want to say
But I'm gona keep on loving You this way
They say you don't miss your water
'til your well runs dry
Well I'm sure enough missing You
I ain't gonna tell no more lie
I wanna come home, would You please let me in;
I'm really trying' to make You see
I want to start over again
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Without You no joy, no
No life, no reason to live;
And I give all that I am
So do what You want to
What I'm really trying to say is
Don't take Your joy away
[Chorus]
[Vamp:]
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
Don't take it away
