Trading My Sorrows
Written by Darrell Evans

 

D       G               Bm   A   D        G             Bm    A
I’m trading my sorrows.  I’m trading my shame
D     G                  Bm                A                  D        G             Bm    A
I’m laying them down for the joy of the Lord
D      G                Bm   A   D       G             Bm    A
I’m trading my sickness.  I’m trading my pain.
D     G                   Bm                A                  D        G             Bm    A
I’m laying them down for the joy of the Lord

D              G              Bm          A
Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord
D              G              Bm          A
Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord
D              G              Bm          A           D      G    Bm   A
Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord, Amen

         D                         G                    Bm                   A 
I’m pressed but not crushed, persecuted, not abandoned
D             G                      Bm             A 
Struck down but not destroyed
          D                              G                       Bm                   A 
I’m blessed beyond the curse, for His promise will endure
                 D                 G             Bm       A 
That His joy’s gonna be my strength

A                                         Bm                 A
Though the sorrow may last for the night
       G
His joy comes in the morning
