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

Though the sorrow may last for the night
    G                D
His joy comes with the morning

(Repeat I and Chorus)
