The Center of My Joy Lyrics

Song by Richard Smallwood

Jesus, you’re the center of my joy
All that’s good and perfect comes from you
You’re the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do
Jesus, you’re the center of my joy

When I’ve lost my direction, you’re the compass for my way
You’re the fire and light when nights are long and cold
In sadness, you are the laughter, that shatters all my fears
When I’m all alone, your hand is there to hold, ohh

Jesus, you’re the center of my joy
All that’s good and perfect comes from you
You’re the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do
Jesus, you’re the center of my joy

You are why I find pleasure in the simple things in life
You’re the music in the meadows and the streams
The voices of the children, my family, and my home
You’re the source and finish of my highest dreams, woah

Jesus, you’re the center of my joy
All that’s good and perfect comes from you (all that’s good and perfect)
You’re the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do
Jesus (Jesus), you are (you are) the center (the center) of my joy

Jesus (Jesus), you are (you are) the center (the center) of my joy
Jesus (Jesus), you are (you are) the center (the center) of my joy

You are everything (Jesus), everything (you are)
Everything (the center) everything (of my joy)
You’re my joy (Jesus) in my sorrow (you are)
You’re my hope (the center) for tomorrow (of my joy)
When I’m lonely (Jesus), feel inside (you are)
You’re the lifter (the center) of my head (of my joy)
You’re my music (Jesus), you’re my song (you are)
You’re my joy (the center) all day long (of my joy)
Woah, Jesus, you’re the center of my joy
Of my joy
