Joshua Luke Smith - Joy Lyrics

[Intro]
(Oh yeah, oh yeah)
(Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah)

[Verse 1]
I heard the prophet say
There'll be a day we're broken down to
Grains of sand and blown away
And lifted high within the breeze
When the winds blow as they please
They will come and bend the trees;
Bring great men down to their knees
Ain't no sage knows when it comes-
Raise your glass and drink your rum
Ain't no man out here outruns his
Days on earth and when they're done
The Kingdom's here and is to come
Hold your own and face the sun
No good thing is vacant of eternal songs and ancient love

[Verse 2]
One day we'll be under
So let's make love and sing our songs like thunder
Let's live our whole life with a soul full of wonder
Blessed are those whose spirits thirst and hunger
It's so easy to be cynical and tainted
But she stood inside the storm and faced it
Came out the other side with a joy she tasted
Embraced it, and told me that our pain isn't wasted
[Verse 3]
So live now
Bruv' it matters what we give now
Every second is a blessing, man, the present is a gift
Whilst we're on this side of Heaven our weapon is just to live
The resistance in the midst of our trauma
Is gratitude for every meal and glass of water
Walk with your sons, dance with your daughters
Ask for wisdom from all those who went before us

[Verse 4]
And when the evening draws in
Pour out another glass of gin and tell the stories of your kin
Despite the struggles we were in, we found the strength to sing
About the love of God and how death is not the end
When I grow old and grey
At the end of my days I'll raise a toast and say
"I'm so thankful for the grace and the friends I made
And like the grass I'll just fade away"
