Trading My Sorrows

I am trading my sorrows, I am trading my shame
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord, yeah
I am trading my sickness, I am trading my pain
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord

We'll say
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord, Amen

I am pressed but not crushed, persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I am blessed beyond the curse for His promise will endure
His joy's gonna be my strength
Though the sorrow may last for the night
His joy comes with the morning

I am trading my sorrows, I am trading my shame
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord
I am trading my sickness, I am trading my pain
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord

Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord,
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord,
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord, Amen

Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord,
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord,
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes yes Lord, Amen

I am pressed but not crushed, persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed,
I am blessed beyond the curse for His promise will endure
His joy's gonna be my strength

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

I am trading my sorrows, I am trading my shame
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord,
I am trading my sickness, I am trading my pain
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord

Yeah

La la lala la la lah

I am trading my sorrows, I am trading my shame
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord,
I am trading my sickness, I am trading my pain
I am laying them down for the joy of the Lord

La la lala la la lah
