Where is your joy

"We were visiting an extremely traditional church one Sunday and was looking at the faces of the people coming back from communion. Their faces were completely devoid of any joy. And I just thought... where did you leave your joy this morning? I decided to treat "joy" as something tangable you could loose or leave somewhere and then pose the question "Where is your joy?"." - K.S
Intro:
Well, I saw you at the stadium
you were cheering for your favorite team.
Your heart was filled with so much joy;
More than I had ever seen, but tell me...

Chorus:
Where is your joy?
Where is your joy?

Verse 1:
Did you leave it on your dresser at home;
Or on someones message on a telephone;
Did you leave it in jeans last night underneath your pillow? (CH)

Verse 2:
Did you loose your job did you loose your way;
Did you loose your nerve or the words to say;
Did you leave your joy in your dreams last night underneath your pillow? (CH)

Verse 3:
Joy to the world the Lord has come
Let earth receive her King.
Let every heart prepare him room and sing, sing... (CH)
