A                   D
I'm pressed but not crushed
     F#m        E
persecuted not abandoned
A       D                F#m   E
Struck down but not destroyed
A                      D
I'm blessed beyond the curse
        F#m              E
For His promise will endure
         A           D       F#m    E
And His joy is gonna be my strength

Pre-chorus
E                 
Though the sorrow may last for a night
 D                 E
Joy comes in the morning
