Trading My Sorrows
(Isaiah 40:31, 26:8; 2 Corinthians 4:8-9; Galatians 3:13;
Nehemiah 8:10; Psalm 30:5)

<verse 1>
G   C          Em  D    G   C          Em  D
I'm trading my sorrows, I'm trading my shame
G   C           Em           D          G  C  Em  D
I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord
G   C          Em  D     G   C          Em  D
I'm trading my sickness, I'm trading my pain
G   C         Em           D          G  C  Em  D
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord

<chorus>
       G         C         Em        D
We say yes Lord, yes Lord, yes, yes, Lord
G         C         Em        D
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes, yes, Lord
G         C         Em        D      G  C  Em  D
Yes Lord, yes Lord, yes, yes, Lord, Amen

<verse 2>
I'm pressed but not crushed persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I am blessed beyond the curse for his promise will 
endure, that His joy's gonna be my strength

<refrain>
D                     Dsus         D
Though the sorrow may last for the night
    F                  C
His joy comes with the morning

(repeat song)
(verse 1-2x)
