jimmy swaggart - the best of the trade lyrics
oh the lord give me beauty for ashes
and for sorrow he gave to me joy
i was sad and oppressed,
he exchanged it for rest,
and a peace that the world can’t destroy.
i traded my sins for salvation,
i traded my load for relief;
i got peace for my condemnation,
and the joy of my lord for my grief.
i traded my life that was wasted,
a temple to dwell in god made;
i got so much more than i had before,
that i’m sure i got the best of the trade.
i was poor and had nothing worth having,
disappointment had saddened my life;
now i’m rich as can be,
since he traded with me,
abundance of peace for my strife.
i traded my sins for salvation,
i traded my load for relief;
i got peace for my condemnation,
and the joy of my lord for my grief.
i traded my life that was wasted,
a temple to dwell in god made;
i got so much more than i had before,
that i’m sure i got the best of the trade.
i was restless, but god made me quiet,
when i fully surrendered my all,
he gave me comfort for my fear,
gave me smiles for my tears,
as he lovingly heard when i called.
i traded my sins for salvation,
i traded my load for relief;
i got peace for my condemnation,
and the joy of my lord for my grief.
i traded my life that was wasted,
a temple to dwell in god made;
i got so much more than i had before,
that i’m sure i got the best of the trade
