The JOY Before You

[Verse 1] Outside the house where healing dawned I saw You step into the air You touched my sleeves, You called me near And found me waiting there I came from where the Father is With one request beneath the sky I prayed, You held me close and said Your love would never die [Pre-Chorus] Bread and lentils, simple grace A secret name, a knowing face Then up the green hillside we came With heaven breathing through Your name [Chorus] Yeshua, the joy before You The gladness shining through the pain Yeshua, I will adore You Through every loss and every gain With love and self-control You carry mercy for the soul Yeshua, the joy before You Will lead You through the flame [Verse 2] Purple falling like a veil Around the place where secrets bloom A flame upon my lifted hand A candle in the room The menorah, gold and fire The Holy Place beyond the door You smiled and said the joy before You Was worth enduring more [Pre-Chorus] You shaped the dust beneath Your hands I felt the beginning touch the now The river, flowers, sapphire floor And trust became my sacred vow [Chorus] Yeshua, the joy before You The gladness shining through the pain Yeshua, I will adore You Through every loss and every gain With love and self-control You carry mercy for the soul Yeshua, the joy before You Will lead You through the flame [Bridge] The Spirit is always willing The waters wait, the boats will sail The ministry still needs its fueling Your promise will not fail Look at Me, You said, be delighted Salvation reaches every shore The past and future meet together And love becomes much more [Verse 3] I touched the place that would be pierced Before the wound was ever there I held Your face and kissed the grief And covered it with prayer The garden sweat, the cross, the blood But sorrow would not have the end I saw Your wounds made gold with love And silver in Your hands [Chorus] Yeshua, the joy before You The gladness shining through the pain Yeshua, I will adore You Through every loss and every gain With love and self-control You carry mercy for the soul Yeshua, the joy before You Will lead You through the flame [Final Chorus] Yeshua, everything is held now Water and blood, the river and the cross Yeshua, beginning meets fulfillment Nothing loved is ever lost Beneath the purple veil Your faithful mercy will prevail Yeshua, the joy before You Will carry You through all [Outro] Yeshua, Yeshua The joy before You Yeshua, Yeshua Full-circle love Yeshua, Yeshua I will stay near You Everything is gonna be okay #TheJoyBeforeYou #Yeshua #Jesus #WorshipMusic #Hebrews12 #JoySetBeforeHim #HolySpirit #TheCross #ChristianMusic #OriginalWorship
