Mary Mary is an American contemporary gospel duo, consisting of sisters Erica Atkins-Campbell (born (1972-04-29)April 29, 1972) and Trecina "Tina" Atkins-Campbell (born (1974-05-02)May 2, 1974). The duo are often credited along with Kirk Franklin for broadening the fan base of urban contemporary gospel in the 2000s by introducing elements of soul music, hip hop, funk and jazz. Mary Mary broke onto the music scene with their popular song "Shackles (Praise You)"—which is considered one of the pioneering songs of urban contemporary gospel music. The group's name, as stated in an interview is inspired by the two famous Mary's from the Bible; Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ, and Mary Magdelene. more »

One-two, one-two, one
One-two, one-two
T get off my stuff
I'm not playing man
Alright (oh)
You goin' take this one
Alright

[Chorus] 
I get joy, joy thinking about
What He's done for me
I get joy, joy thinking about
What He's done for me
It's in my hands, my feet
I'm talking about
What He's done for me
I get joy just thinking about
What He's done for me

Oh how I wonder when my soul looks black
How I ever made it through my sinful, wicked past
I did everything that I though I wanted till it brought me down
Then God reached out to me
So I'm here to tell you now
I get joy

[Chorus]
 
I've seen the bottom of the mountain
I've had my share of pain
I've been through so many struggles
I thought I'd never breathe again
So I prayed that God would help me
I couldn't handle it no more
Then He lifted every burden
And that's why I get joy yeah

[Chorus: x 2] 

You know what he's done for me yeah
You don't know like I know
What He's done for me
I've been talking about it
What He's done for me
I can go, no yeah

[Chorus Until Fade]
