Healing hasn't come just yet
But I believe that I'm still in Your hands
I didn't really ask for this
But You're bigger than my circumstance
Greater than this hurt and pain
Greater still is Your name
I know, I know
I've got�?�
These hands high in the battle
I believe even in the shadows
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
Gonna trust every word You've spoken
I will have no other hope and
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
So many days when I just cannot see
How You're moving or what You're doing
I know it's clear to You and it's dark to me
So I will follow wherever You're going
I've got�?�
These hands high in the battle
I believe even in the shadows
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
Gonna trust every word You've spoken
I will have no other hope and
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me�?�
You've got new mercies in the morning
Oh, I never walk alone
You will always lead me on
I said You've got new mercies in the morning
It's joy unspeakable
These hands high in the battle
I believe even in the shadows
Yeah, I know You're waiting on me
Gonna trust every word You've spoken
I will have no other hope and
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
I believe it
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
I know there is joy unspeakable
Joy unspeakable is waiting on me
Healing hasn't come just yet
But I believe that I'm still in Your hands
