That's Where The Joy Comes From

Your life and mine are empty vessels

Waiting to be filled

God is pouring out a joy unmeasured

On those who obey His will

He is the giver, we're the receivers

So what you see in me

Is only a gift from the Spirit of life

Who fills my heart constantly

Every perfect gift comes from above

From the Father of lights

From the Lord of love

This joy that I have that I'm singing of

Is from the Lord

Every perfect gift comes from the Lord

From the Father of lights

From the Lord of love

This joy that I have that I'm singing of

Is from the Lord, from the Lord

That's where the joy comes from

That's where the joy comes from

Thieves may try to rob my treasure

But they don't hold the key

That leads into the sanctuary

Where God's Spirit lives in me

He is the builder, I am the temple

So what you see in me

Is what He is making and safely protecting

Until I stand complete

Every perfect gift comes from above

From the Father of lights

From the Lord of love

This joy that I have that I'm singing of

Is from the Lord
