Lyrics

Verse 1

Lately I've been reading
Watching the nightly news
Don't seem to find the rhythm
Just wanna sing the blues
Feels like a song that never stops
Feels like it's never gonna

Pre Chorus

Gotta get that fire fire back in my bones
Before my heart heart turns into stone
So somebody please
Pass the megaphone
I'll shout it on the count of three
One two three

Chorus

Oh hear my prayer tonight
I'm singing to the sky
Give me strength to raise my voice
Let me testify
Oh hear my prayer tonight
'Cause this is do or die
The time has come to make a choice

Refrain

And I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move you
Let it move you
Yeah I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move
Let it move you

Verse 2

Yeah back when I was young
My eyes were full of life
But now that I am older
I live at the speed of light
Feels like the cycle never stops
Feels like it's never gonna

Pre Chorus

Gotta get that fire fire back in my bones
Before my heart heart turns into stone
So somebody please
Pass the megaphone
I'll shout it on the count of three
One two three

Chorus

Oh hear my prayer tonight
I'm singing to the sky
Give me strength to raise my voice
Let me testify
Oh hear my prayer tonight
'Cause this is do or die
The time has come to make a choice

Refrain

And I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move you
Let it move you
Yeah I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move
Let it move you

Chorus 2

Though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of night
Oh with You by my side
I'm stepping into the light
I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move
Let it move you

Bridge

I need that joy joy joy joy
Down in my heart
Down in my heart to stay
I need that joy joy joy joy
Down in my heart
Down in my heart to stay

Refrain

And I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move you
Let it move you
Yeah I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move
Let it move you

Chorus 2

Though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of night
Oh with You by my side
I'm stepping into the light
I choose joy
Let it move you
Let it move
Let it move you

Bridge

I need that joy joy joy joy
Down in my heart
Down in my heart to stay
I need that joy joy joy joy
Down in my heart
Down in my heart to stay

For KING & COUNTRY - "joy."

Thursday, May 24, 2018

Two-time GRAMMY® award-winning duo for KING & COUNTRY has released “joy.,” the debut single from their highly-anticipated forthcoming third studio album, set to release later this year.  Singer Joel Smallbone explains, "We hope that the idea behind the song will place a spotlight on the truth, that we can actively and deliberately – moment by moment and day by day – search for and choose 'joy.'”  His brother, Luke, adds, "We’re not talking about happiness, we’re talking about joy, and I think there’s something very, very different about those two words and how important it is for us to not just let joy fly by us, but to actively choose it. When you wake up in the morning, are you going to be joyful? I think that’s a decision we all get to make.”
