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.

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.

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 are the center of my joy.

Ending:

Jesus, You are the center of my joy,

joy, joy, of my joy.
