Lyrics


My Joy

My joy

The air that I breathe

My joy

In God I believe

My joy


You move me


My joy

The blood in my veins

My joy

Flows in your name

My joy


You move me


I'm not a mountain, no

You move me


My joy

Heavenly bliss

My joy

The pleasures I've missed

My joy


You move me


I'm not a mountain, no

You move me
