Joy Remains

[Intro ]
E   D   A   Am 

 
   E 
I spent half my life starting over 
D                 A 
Finding a place I belong 
E 
Just when I think home's getting closer 
D                          A 
I wake up one day and it's gone 
F#m 
Nothing's ever gonna stop my praise 
G#m     A                       Am 
   When everything is stripped away 
 

 
        E           D 
Joy Remains, joy remains 
                       A                      Am 
You're the sun in the sorrow, the calm in the rain 
           E                    D 
Lord, even if the wind doesn't change 
                A                          Am 
I trust in your promise that you'll make a way 
       E 
Joy remains 
 

 
          E 
When the answers only lead to more questions 
       D                       A 
And it feels like I'm fighting alone 
    E 
The enemy is pushing and pressing 
         D                         D 
He's got nothing on the God that I know 
F#m 
So go ahead and try to steal my hope 
G#m       A                               Am 
   'Cause even what I'm at the end of the road 
 

 
        E           D 
Joy Remains, joy remains 
                       A                      Am 
You're the sun in the sorrow, the calm in the rain 
           E                    D 
Lord, even if the wind doesn't change 
                A                          Am 
I trust in your promise that you'll make a way 
       E 
Joy remains 
 

Interlude 

E  D  A  Am 

 
                   E 
It's there in the darkness 
                D 
Down deep in my heart 
                  A 
We're finding the fire 
                   Am 
That starts with a spark 
                   E 
It's there in the darkness 
                D 
Down deep in my heart 
                  A 
We're finding the fire 
                   Am 
That starts with a spark 
 

 
        E           D 
Joy Remains, joy remains 
                       A                      Am 
You're the sun in the sorrow, the calm in the rain 
           E                    D 
Lord, even if the wind doesn't change 
                A                          Am 
I trust in your promise that you'll make a way 
       E 
Joy remains
