Joy Gives Us Wings ft. Brian Lyrics

Joy gives us wings

Joy gives us wings to fly so high

We only really feel 2 things, joy and pain

Feels like they live in different quarters, but the coin's the same

The way you feel can turn on a dime, to coin a phrase

When you endure the rain, the sun's a joy to behold

Especially when the world is wet with tears

From the pain and grief, it's hard to forget your fears

And when everyday a new threat seems to appear

Look to the edge of the atmosphere, what brings joy to your soul

When sadness comes to visit, my spirit feels weak

When depression shows up, I can't even speak

Anxiety stops by and tries to trick my mind

Got me feeling dead inside, pain destroying the home inside my heart

Lord forgive me for these trespasses

My heart belongs to You, that's Your home, I give it back

And instantly I feel relief, my joy returns, I'm better now

To keep my spirit from the rain, I fly above the clouds

Joy gives us wings

Joy gives us wings to fly so high

Joy gives us wings

Joy gives us wings to fly so high

I woke up this morning with a lot to say

went inside bathroom splashed some water on my face

Little devil on my shoulder started talking crazy

I've been running for so long

Why he gotta chase me?

Put up 4 walls just to keep me safe

I got the whole wide world inside a picture frame

And that's enough ain't it?

But that's just him talking

So I sit locked in

These mental chains

The glass walls keep me contained

I sit and I pray

I meditate and then zone

bring my soul out

If I don't break it, my whole life is wasted

I got light inside my heart, so I gotta make it

grab a chair, throw it out the wall

I see the cracks in it

put my fist through it

I hear the birds chirping. This is God's music

I feel inner peace when my feet hit the grass

I feel blessed

This too shall pass

Joy gives us wings

Joy gives us wings to fly so high

Joy gives us wings

Joy gives us wings to fly so high
