You heard my cry for mercy, You heard my cry for help You turned Your ear to hear me, to save me from myself When I think of all You've done, my heart is overcome with Joy, Joy, unending Joy always joy will remain Joy, Joy, I sing for Joy, always forever I'll stay in Your joy The chains have all been broken, the walls have all come down And here I stand forgiven, in this grace that I have found My heart will sing, my heart will sing for joy Forever I'll sing, forever I'll sing for joy
