In Nehemiah, eight 10, God’s people were weary, but the word reminded them, the joy of the Lord is your strength. That’s the heartbeat of our song, the joy. Maybe today you’re carrying something heavy, feeling worn out, or overwhelmed, but right in the middle of that, God offers you his joy, not as a feeling, but as a real and accessible strength.
Let this song be a reminder. Joy is not gone. It’s just waiting to be received. You belong and you are not alone.
About the Artist
The Belonging Co
The Belonging Co is a church movement based in Nashville, TN. Since it’s inception in 2014, the church has become known as a place to find freedom, breakthrough, and healing through God’s Word, His presence and worship.
The heart of The Belonging Co is that every song released would empower both individuals and the collective body of Christ to encounter God through worship, and experience the freedom that comes through knowing Jesus.
We desire encounter over entertainment, intimacy over industry, presence over presentation, people over position… And most of all JESUS over everything.

The Lyrics
THE JOY
Feat. David Dennis
Written By: Andrew Holt and Mitch Wong
VERSE 1
This is the day You made
So I’ll rejoice and be glad, rejoice and be glad in it
This is where I believe
That You are more than enough, more than enough for me
PRE
You are faithful to Your promise, You are strong when I am weak
When I’m standing in Your presence, I have everything I need
CHORUS
The joy of the Lord, the joy of the Lord is my strength
The joy of the Lord, the joy of the Lord is my strength
O my soul, bless His Name, all that is within me say
The joy of the Lord, the joy of the Lord is my strength
VERSE 2
Jesus, come what may
You are worthy of all, worthy of all my praise
BRIDGE
Let it rise up like a river overflowing Holy Spirit
Let it pour out with no limit overflowing Holy Spirit
TAG
O my soul, bless His Name, all that is within me say
The joy of the Lord, the joy of the Lord is my strength
