Yet Always Rejoicing (feat. Lynnea)

As dying and behold, we live As punished and yet not killed As sorrowful yet always rejoicing What's this life like? I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing There's a mixture of sorrow and joy - it's not either or It's both and - receiving both from God's hand The God-Man walked the land - well acquainted with grief And even suffered under the same death He came to defeat Teach me to number my days, Lord - I'm way more Short-sighted then, I'd like to admit This life is brief but the case that I carry Is like I'm preparing to overstay my welcome - extended When it rains it pours, did you send it? Or did it fall For no reason? Random cycles and seasons I'm tryna not to grow weary (Of good) Even with so many sorrows near me Serving as a shepherd, I know I'm not the chief one The Lord is my Shepherd - that's where I get my peace from This world in its present form will be destroyed But in the presence of the Lord, there is fullness of joy If joys gonna come in the morning By faith, I'm rejoicing right now If joys gonna come in the morning By faith, I'm rejoicing right now Yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing Yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing Joy without sorrow is a joy that's untested And sorrow without joy feels like a death wish The gospel still sounding sweet to these ears of mine With each year behind, the more I long for the finish line Faith tested and refined with more depth to it Now, the future looking bright as I step to it Been through a few storms, can't say I slept through it But my hope was spoken of in the Septuagint God's creation was good, but we ruined it Jesus came and died for the rebels & the hooligans Rose from the grave, heaven and earth, now He's ruling it And when He comes back, He's making all things new again That's a promise God's people are included in I"m broadcasting good news, whose tuning in? I can give it to you but what you gonna do with it? Repent and believe the gospel y'all If joys gonna come in the morning By faith, I'm rejoicing right now If joys gonna come in the morning By faith, I'm rejoicing right now Yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing Yet always rejoicing I'm sorrowful yet always rejoicing And we can't escape these sorrows Living on time, that's borrowed No, we can't escape these sorrows Living on time, that's borrowed Yet always rejoicing Yet always rejoicing As having nothing yet possessing everything
