Tasha Layton's song 'Joy Comes' is a contemporary Christian worship track that encourages listeners to praise God through difficult seasons. The lyrics acknowledge feelings of being overwhelmed, broken, lost, and afraid, yet choose to praise God because He is unchanging and ever-present. The central message draws from Psalm 30:5, repeating that weeping may last for the night but joy arrives in the morning. The song also affirms God's closeness, His role as a protector who fights battles and dispels shadows, and the resolve to fear no evil because He is with us. It's a hopeful anthem for those enduring hardship, reminding them of the joy that follows sorrow.

Praise you when I'm overwhelmed
Praise you in my brokenness
Praise you so I don't forget
Who you are
Who you are
Praise you when I lost my way
Praise you when I'm so afraid
Praise you cause you never change
Who you are
Who you are
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Praise you when I'm empty handed
Praise you when I feel abandoned
Praise you cause I'm not alone
You see me
You see me
Praise you when the road is long
Praise you when my faith is gone
Praise you cause you hear the song
I'm singing
I'm singing
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
I will fear no evil
I know you are with me
Closer than I think you
You're closer than I think you are
Fighting all my battles
Lighting every shadow
Closer than I think you are
You're closer than I think you are
I will fear no evil
I know you are with me
Closer than I think you are
You're closer than I think you are
Fighting all my battles
Lighting every shadow
Closer than I think you are
You're closer than I think you are
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
I will fear no evil
I know you are with me
Closer than I think you are
You're closer than I think you are
Fighting all my battles
Lighting every shadow
Closer than I think you are
You're closer than I think you are
Weeping may endure for the night
But joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
Joy comes in the morning
