[Verse 1] Studied for weeks, maybe a month I didn't take my assignment lightly First time speaking on a Sunday morning And shyness was fighting me But the pastor called on me to do this thing I knew God had a word I had to bring Straight from First Samuel, Hannah's story “Trust the process, preparation for the promise” Little did I know, I was preaching to myself Little did I know... [Chorus] Trust the process, wait on the promise Even in the valley, when the road feels hardest His mercies are new, brand new every morning Great is Thy faithfulness, through every storm forming [Verse 2] Mother's Day, twenty-twenty-six, the seed was sown That Tuesday, emergency surgery for my sister; her health unknown A mass in her brain, hours of heavy fear Then a text from my job pulled me down near Five years gone in a single message A dream job fading, hard to digest Standing in the hospital, my foundation shaking My sister looked at me, her courage waking I shed a few tears, then she said to me “God has better for you, just wait and see” [Bridge] There were bigger fish to fry, she was fighting for her life A quick goodbye to the team, pushing through the strife Then came the silence, survival mode's test Two hundred applications, each rejection pressed Watching mass layoffs spreading across the land Wondering how anyone could make a stand Feeling cut down, pushed out, and worn thin Wondering where I could even begin [Chorus] Trust the process, wait on the promise Even in the valley, when the road feels hardest His mercies are new, brand new every morning Great is Thy faithfulness, through every storm forming [Outro] This I recall to my mind, therefore I have hope It's the Lord's mercies we're not consumed; they help us cope His compassion fails not, great is His faithfulness So I built Yachal, a space for hope and blessedness Yah-khahl—to wait, to hope, and to expect Speak God's Word over your life; don't neglect Get to know the Savior; He is truly the only way He'll help you make it through another day
