I traveled down a bad road going nowhere
I cried, "Lord, have mercy", and He heard my prayer
He saved me, forgave me
Took away all my pain and sin
I said, "Will You forever be my friend"
He said, "Child, I'll be with you 'til the end"
Joy divine, it's mine
Since I've started walking with Him
Since I let Jesus in my heart
He gave my life a brand new start
No one can figure what's wrong with me
I go around as happy as I can be
He saved me, forgave me
Took away all my pain and sin
It's been joy divine
Since I've started walking with Him
It's comfort to know I'm never alone
I don't need to fax or telephone
I say, "Jesus", and He hears me
He always answers right on time
I've gone from shame to royalty
And to grace, child of the King
I'm made new, through and through
Since I've started walking with Him
Since I let Jesus in my heart
He gave my life a brand new start
No one can figure what's wrong with me
I go around as happy as I can be
He saved me, forgave me
Took away all my pain and sin
It's been joy divine
Since I've started walking with Him
It's been joy divine
Since I've started walking with Him
(Since I've started walking)
Since I've started walking with Him
(Oh, it's been joy a-walking)
Since I've started walking with Him
