From the recording Album 6 Philippians & Colossians
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
In a prison cell, Paul lifted his voice in praise to God.
Though bound in chains, his spirit soared on the path that Jesus trod.
The gospel spread through suffering, his joy could not be swayed.
For Christ was his foundation, and His love would never fade.
(Chorus)
Joy through every chain, in Jesus I’ll stand tall,
His love lifts my heart, He’s my all in all!
No trial can steal the gladness His Spirit brings to me.
Joy through every chain, His grace has set me free!
(Verse 2)
The guards could hear his singing, the prisoners felt his peace.
His joy in Christ was burning, a light that would not cease.
Through every loss and hardship, he trusted in God’s plan.
For Jesus was his reason, the strength to make a stand!
(Chorus)
Joy through every chain, in Jesus I’ll stand tall,
His love lifts my heart, He’s my all in all!
No trial can steal the gladness His Spirit brings to me.
Joy through every chain, His grace has set me free!
(Bridge)
Oh, His joy is my salvation, His strength will never fail.
In every storm I’ll praise Him, for His love will e’er prevail!
(Verse 3)
When I reach that heavenly city, where no chains will bind my soul.
I’ll sing with Paul forever, where His joy will make me whole.
‘Til then I’ll keep on praising, through every trial and pain.
Joy through every chain, ‘til I see my King and reign!
Chorus)
Joy through every chain, in Jesus I’ll stand tall,
His love lifts my heart, He’s my all in all!
No trial can steal the gladness His Spirit brings to me.
Joy through every chain, His grace has set me free!
(Outro)
No trial can steal the gladness His Spirit brings to me.
Joy through every chain, His grace has set me free!
