Tauren Wells and Elevation Worship's 'Joy In The Morning' is a worship song that encourages perseverance through difficult seasons. It acknowledges the struggle of not understanding present circumstances but trusts that God is working and will bring joy. The lyrics urge listeners to release control, keep believing, and hold on until the morning comes, echoing the biblical promise that weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5). The song emphasizes faith over feelings and reminds that God is not finished with the story yet.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

Everything happens for a reason
But you don't know what you don't know
And you'll never have peace if you don't let go of tomorrow
'Cause it ain't even faith 'til your plan falls apart
But you still choose to follow
If it doesn't make sense right now
It will when it's over

There will be joy in the morning
There will be joy in the morning

Giving in to your feelings
Is like drowning in the shallows
Oh you got to keep believing
Even in the middle of the unknown
'Cause grace will be there when you come to the end of your rope
And you let go
It may feel like you're going down now
But the story isn't over

There will be joy in the morning
There will be joy in the morning
If it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet
There will be joy in the morning

There will be joy in the morning
There will be joy in the morning
If it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet
(Hold on 'til the morning)
There will be joy in the morning

Hey, yeah
If it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet, no (Hold on 'til the morning)
If it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet, no, no, no (Hold on 'til the morning)

If it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet (Hold on 'til the morning)
Hey, if it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet

There will be joy in the morning
(Hold on, hold on 'til the morning)
There will be joy in the morning
(Hold on, hold on 'til the morning)
If it's not good, then He's not done
No, He's not done with it yet
There will be joy in the morning

There will be joy in the morning
There will be joy in the morning
