They can take the world, but they can’t steal my joy. Josiah Queen's bold declaration sets the tone for his latest release, Can’t Steal My Joy. This is an electrifying collaboration with five-time GRAMMY® winner Brandon Lake. With soaring harmonies, powerful lyrics, and an unshakable message of resilience, the song is a triumph of faith and positivity. Co-written with Hank Bentley and Jacob Sooter, who also handled production, this track is a stirring reminder that joy isn’t circumstantial—it’s a gift that cannot be taken away. Speaking about the inspiration behind the song, Queen reflects:
The joy of the Lord is our strength. A lot of times we don’t think about the power we have in joy. All my life, the enemy has tried to rob me of my joy, but he can’t have something he never gave me.
The Tampa native’s first release under Capitol Records and Capitol Christian Music Group (CCMG) builds on the success of his chart-topping debut album, The Prodigal.
Queen teased the track to his millions of social media followers, racking up over five million views in the lead-up to its release. The pairing of Queen’s heartfelt storytelling and Lake’s commanding vocals elevates the song, making it a standout anthem for 2025.
