The joy it carries me I know Yes the joy it carries me Anywhere that I may go The joy it carries me The time will come at last Our days spent here is past Still I know I'll see The joy that carries me I know The joy that carries me The joy that carries me I know The joy that carries me Joy that carries me We get the birds that sing in the spreading leaves And the joy it carries me Morning sun and the evening breeze And the joy it carries me Winter stars and the August moon And the joy it carries me A lover's touch and a mournful tune And the joy it carries me There may come a day When these things fade away
Still I know I'll see The joy that carries me I know The joy that carries me The joy that carries me I know The joy that carries me Joy that carries me Our lives can get so hard at times Still the joy it carries me Darkness seems to fill our minds The joy it carries me The day will come at last The hard times, they are past And I know I'll see The joy that carries me I know The joy that carries me The joy that carries me I know The joy that carries me Joy that carries me Carries me That carries me That carries, carries, carries me Carries me Joy that carries me
