Center Of My Joy

Words and Music by Gloria Gaither, 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

Oh, help me sing

Jesus You're the center of my joy

All that's good and perfect

Said it comes from You

Yes it does, yes it does

You're the heart of my contentment

Hope for all I do

What's his name?

Jesus

Jesus You're the center of my joy

Oh

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 shadows all my fears

When I'm all alone

Your hand is there to hold

Oh, oh

Jesus, yes you are

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

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 finisher

Of my highest dreams

Oh, Jesus, oh

Jesus You're the center of my joy

All that's good and perfect

Said it comes from You

Yes it does, yes it does

You're the heart of my contentment

Hope for all I do

Oh Jesus

You're the center of my joy

Oh Jesus

You're the center of my joy

And Jesus, nobody but you, you you you you you

Of my Joy

Jesus, you are the center of my joy

Jesus, you are the center of my joy

When I was down

You picked me up

When I was thirsty

You filled my cup

Jesus

You're the center of my joy

Oh Jesus, You're the center of my joy

Oh oh

My joy

Hallelujah
