Joy

(album: The Gift: A Christmas Compilation - 2018)

[Abe Parker:]
Oh, yeah
I'ma send that
Joy to the world
The Lord has come
Joy to the world, to the world, yeah
And tell all the earth of God's own Son
Joy to the world, to the world

[Trip Lee:]
Yeah
I ain't tryna throw no shade
But its like joy's on slo-mo
Good news I can't tell where you at (Huh?)
Looking to the heavens tryna yell where you at (Where you at)
Why pain gotta chain us? (Huh?)
Will the unjust ever have to pay up?
Yeah, joy comes if we wait up (Wait)
Even came in the flesh long ago to obtain us (Yeah)
Don't send it my way (My way)
On ten, 'cause He been in my gates (My gates)
Can't live like I'm still in my grave (My grave)
Lights dim when I'm feeling blase (ok)
Now me and my squad just gonna feast on the bliss He brought us (Yeah)
Why wait for tomorrow? (Huh?)
Joy came and He called us (Yeah)
I'ma send that

[Lecrae:]
Joy to the world, joy to my baby girl
'Cause the King love us more than we deserve, yeah
I'ma have to spread the word, good news for the hood
Dudes tryna make it work, yeah
Joy to the world, yeah
To the little boys and the girls, yeah
For the bright days and the dark nights it'd be alright
God gon' keep His word, yeah
I know that things gon' change now, the King done come
May His will be done and His kingdom come, amen
Huh, if you believe me you can say amen, yeah, yeah

[Abe Parker:]
Joy to the world

Joy to the world, to the world, yeah
And tell all the earth of God's own Son

I've been thinking about the Christmas meaning
Is it really about the fuzzy feelings?
Is it really about the bows that get hung up on the low?
Unless God intervening
I ain't hating, no, no, on the lights and the trees
But I don't want to let the show, end up out the door, instead of Jesus
And this time around, oh we're gonna tell everybody what it's all about
We'll send that

[Abe Parker & Trip Lee:]
I'ma send that
I'ma send it out my way
I'ma send that
I'ma send it out my way
I'ma send that
Please send it out my way
I'ma send that
I'ma send it out my way
Joy to the world
Yeah, I'ma send that
Huh, I'ma send that
I'ma send that...
Joy to the world
