[Verse 2] Every promise spoken, every word You’ve declared, Is the anchor of my soul when the storm fills the air. Though the trial may linger, my heart will not despair, For Your Spirit reminds me You’re always there. [Chorus] Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer, Lord, I’ll rest in Your provision. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer, I’ll trust in Your direction. [Bridge] Hope will not fade, for it rests in You, Your love is the strength that will see me through. Through every season, You remain the same, Jesus, forever I’ll lift up Your name. [Chorus] Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer, Lord, I’ll rest in Your provision. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer, I’ll trust in Your direction. [Last Chorus] Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer, Lord, I’ll rest in Your provision. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer, I’ll trust in Your direction. [Tag/Outro] Joyful in hope, Patient in affliction, Faithful in prayer— I’ll keep holding on.
