Verse 1 I woke up with a song today, Opened the curtains, let the sunshine play. Yesterday’s worries were weighing me down, But Your tender mercy has turned me around. There’s bread on the table, a friend at the door, A thousand little things to thank You for. I put on my shoes, step into the light— Yeshua, with You, my heart comes alive! Chorus Joy is rising, rising in my soul, Like a river running, let it overflow! Clap your hands, let your feet keep time, I am Yours, Yeshua, and You are mine! Through every season, come what may, Your faithful love gives me a song to raise. Oh-oh-oh, let the whole world hear— There’s joy in my heart, for my King is near! Verse 2 Some days the answer is slow to come, Still I can praise You before it is done. You walk beside me wherever I go, Teaching my restless heart to take it slow. There’s room at the table, come pull up a chair, We’ve got a little hope and a lot to share. Tell me your story, I’ll tell you mine— Look how His goodness has carried our lives! Chorus Joy is rising, rising in my soul, Like a river running, let it overflow! Clap your hands, let your feet keep time, I am Yours, Yeshua, and You are mine! Through every season, come what may, Your faithful love gives me a song to raise. Oh-oh-oh, let the whole world hear— There’s joy in my heart, for my King is near! Bridge Who gives strength for another day? Yeshua! Yeshua! Who walks with us along the way? Yeshua! Yeshua! With grateful hearts, we sing Your praise, You have been faithful all our days! Instrumental Final Chorus Joy is rising, rising in my soul, Like a river running, let it overflow! Clap your hands, let your feet keep time, I am Yours, Yeshua, and You are mine! Through every season, come what may, Your faithful love gives me a song to raise. Oh-oh-oh, let the whole world hear— There’s joy in my heart, for my King is near! Outro There’s bread on the table, a song in the air, Abba, Your goodness is everywhere! Oh-oh-oh, let the joy rise!
