I’m trading my sorrows,
I’m trading my shame

I’m laying them down
for the joy of the Lord

I’m trading my sickness,
I’m trading my pain

I’m laying them down
for the joy of the Lord

We say yes Lord yes Lord
yes yes Lord

Yes Lord yes Lord,
yes yes Lord,

Yes Lord yes Lord,
yes yes Lord, Amen

I’m pressed but not crushed,
persecuted not abandoned,

Struck down but not destroyed

I’m blessed beyond the curse
for his promise will endure

That his joy’s gonna be my strength

Though the sorrow may last for the night,

His joy comes in the morning

I’m trading my sorrows,
I’m trading my shame

I’m laying them down
for the joy of the Lord

I’m trading my sickness,
I’m trading my pain

I’m laying them down
for the joy of the Lord

We say yes Lord yes Lord
yes yes Lord

Yes Lord yes Lord,
yes yes Lord,

Yes Lord yes Lord,
yes yes Lord, Amen
