Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The sun rose
The birds singing woke me up
The good news
Is good like it always was
It’s still enough
[PreChorus]
Got people that I love
Got food on the table
Got a God that’s still so good and faithful
I ain’t afraid
When the ground’s unstable
'Cause worry can't steal from a heart this grateful
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna stay where the joy is
Oh, stand in the wonder of the fullness of Your goodness
My lungs filled up with the breath You give
In the sweet, sweet presence of God, I live
Oh, I wanna stay where the joy is, where the joy is
[Verse 2]
Only grow old
If you forget how to smile
So let go
Of hurt and live like a child
Free and wild
[PreChorus]
Got people that I love
Got food on the table
Got a God that’s still so good and faithful
Joy’s not a place
It’s a disposition
And a grateful heart don't need convincing
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna stay where the joy is
Oh, stand in the wonder of the fullness of Your goodness
My lungs filled up with the breath You give
In the sweet, sweet presence of God, I live
Oh, I wanna stay where the joy is, where the joy is
[Bridge]
It’s the simple truth
With my eyes on You
All the world's brand-new
And I can’t see it any other way
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna stay where the joy is
Oh, stand in the wonder of the fullness of Your goodness
My lungs filled up with the breath You give
In the sweet, sweet presence of God, I live
Oh, I wanna stay where the joy is, where the joy is
