"JOY...to the world - I'm so pleased this song is finally out." Smith shares. "It's more than a song but a testimony of how kind God is. That we can really only find true Joy in his presence. Even when there are cracks appearing all over my life, I can put on a garment of praise.
"Sometimes I lead worship with a guitar, sometimes I'll grab a flag. The world may call it foolish, but something powerful happens when we praise God with passion and sacrifice. What costs us nothing changes nothing. So yep, not everyone's cup of tea, I know, but I'm young enough to run around the room and old enough to not care what anyone thinks. Here comes the JOY."
Martin Smith has penned many of the church's most loved songs while shaping the modern worship scene. The former frontman of the top-charting band Delirious? and multi-GMA Dove Award® winner has toured worldwide in his vast career, performing in arenas and stadiums to millions of people, including Glastonbury Festival's main stage. He has also toured with Bon Jovi and Bryan Adams and most recently opened for Kari Jobe and Cody Carnes on their "The Blessing" European tour. Smith has also appeared in Nashville for both the "Worship Together" conference and at Bridgestone Arena for "The Send" conference.
VERSE 1
Why would I not, sing of your praises?
Even when troubles come
Why would I not, worship forever
Cos, I've seen the good you've done
PRE-CHORUS 1
And I'm not ashamed, I'm a sinner saved
No I'm not afraid anymore
What the world calls foolish, you call freedom
Now, I won't hold back anymore
CHORUS
I've got joy in the morning, joy in the evening
You keep me dancing, in every season
Whatever comes tomorrow, I've got joy
VERSE 2
I'm letting go, I'm wild in your presence,
Dance till the sun comes up.
You make me strong, whenever I praise you
Jesus you fill my cup
CHORUS
I've got joy in the morning, joy in the evening
You keep me dancing, in every season
Whatever comes tomorrow, I've got joy
CHORUS 2
I've got joy in the sunshine, joy in the rain
You keep me dancing, again and again
Whatever comes tomorrow, I've got joy
BRIDGE
I got joy, joy, joy
Down in my heart
I got joy, joy, joy
Down in my heart, hallelujah x3
