Verse 1 – The Dreamer

Jacob’s favored son of dreams,
The robe of colors brightly gleams.
Visions of stars that bow and bend,
Prophecies no one could comprehend.
Brothers whisper, hearts grow cold,
Silver traded, freedom sold.
Thrown in the pit beneath the sun,
But God was near—His work begun.

Pre-Chorus

In the dark, Your purpose burns,
In the silence, faith still learns.
Every tear You’ve numbered true—
What they meant for harm, You turned for good in You.

Chorus

From the pit to the palace, You raised him high,
From the shadows to the Pharaoh’s sky.
Through the prison, through the storm,
You shaped a nation to be reborn.
Every chain, every trial, every tear undone—
God of justice, Your will be done.

Verse 2 – The Test of Fire

Joseph stood in foreign lands,
Faith still burning in his hands.
Potiphar’s halls, deceit and shame,
Yet Joseph held to Your holy name.
Falsely accused, the cell was cold,
But Heaven’s promise still took hold.
Dreams interpreted, truth foretold,
Your mercy’s plan began to unfold.

Chorus

From the pit to the palace, You raised him high,
From the shadows to the Pharaoh’s sky.
Through the prison, through the storm,
You shaped a nation to be reborn.
Every chain, every trial, every tear undone—
God of justice, Your will be done.

Bridge – The Reunion

Brothers kneel before the throne,
Not knowing grace had made it home.
Joseph wept with tears of peace,
“God sent me here so lives be released.”
Forgiveness stronger than the grave,
The heart that suffered now could save.
You meant it evil, but Heaven planned—
The famine fed by mercy’s hand.

Final Chorus (Build to Epic Worship)

From the pit to the palace, Your promise stands,
Through the fire, You refine our hands.
Though the world may cast us down,
Your favor lifts the faithful crown.
Every wound became a door to run—
God of purpose, Your will be done!

Tag (Soft Outro)
You turn sorrow into song,
Every wrong into right.
For the dreamers still waiting—
Your dawn breaks the night.

Verse 1
The voice of Heaven broke the day,
“Abraham,” it called his name.
“Take your son, your only one,
And lay him where My will is done.”

Each step a tremor, each breath a plea,
“Still I will walk where You lead me.”

Chorus
Obedience — the altar of the soul,
Where love surrenders, where hearts are whole.
Through fire and tears, through fear and test,
I live, I breathe, in obedience.

Verse 2
The wood is laid, the air is still,
The trembling hands obey Your will.
The son is bound, the knife held high,
Then mercy breaks the morning sky.

“Abraham! Abraham! Do not despair!”
A ram appears — love answers prayer.

Bridge
Upon that mount, the promise stands,
Faith and mercy in God’s hands.
A greater Son would one day climb,
And end the test for all of time.

Final Chorus
Obedience — the heart of grace,
Where faith beholds the Father’s face.
I give my all, no more, no less,
To walk this life in obedience.

Outro
Even when reason makes no sense,
I choose Your way…
Obedience.

Verse 1

Left the comfort, left it all,
To chase a voice that wouldn’t stall.
The world grew quiet, friends grew cold,
But Heaven whispered, “I make you bold.”
Three in the morning, tears and flame,
Praying through storms, through loss, through shame.
Bills unpaid, yet faith unshaken,
The war is fierce, but I’m not forsaken.

Chorus

I’m heeding the call when the darkness falls,
Through the fire and pain, I still give my all.
When the arrows fly and the night is long,
Your Spirit makes the weak man strong.
I’m standing in armor, I will not fall,
I’m heeding the call — 

Verse 2

Family turned, the nights grew thin,
But love kept burning deep within.
The sword of truth, the shield of faith,
Each wound reminds — I’m saved by grace.
Chains of debt, but not of fear,
Each trial draws Your presence near.
In weary flesh, my soul still fights,
Awake at dawn for heaven’s light.

Chorus

I’m heeding the call when the darkness falls,
Through the fire and pain, I still give my all.
When the arrows fly and the night is long,
Your Spirit makes the weak man strong.
I’m standing in armor, I will not fall,
I’m heeding the call — 

Bridge (start soft, rise in battle power)

I’ve walked through shadows, I’ve seen the sword,
Yet angels guard me by Your word.
The helmet of hope, the breastplate of truth,
My battle cry — I live for You.
Though hell may rise, I will not fear,
For every trial draws You near.
You woke me, Lord, when the world would sleep,
To guard the souls You gave me to keep.

Final Chorus (soaring and orchestral)

I’m heeding the call when my strength is gone,
Your grace within keeps pressing on.
When the battle roars and faith must stand,
I fight with mercy in Your hand.
Though wounded, weary, still I crawl,
I’m heeding the call — 

Coda (gentle, ambient fade)

When morning breaks and the tears still fall,
You’ll find me praying… still heeding the call.

Verse 1 – The Trial in the Garden

Beneath the moon of olive trees,
The Savior knelt on trembling knees.
The world’s great weight pressed down His frame,
The spotless Lamb who bore our shame.

His friends asleep, His soul in dread,
The shadow of the cross ahead.
The cup of wrath before His eyes,
The test of love that never dies.

Pre-Chorus

He saw the thorns, the nails, the pain,
The flood of sin, the world’s disdain.
Yet through the dark, His voice was clear —
A prayer that still the heavens hear:

Chorus

“Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me;
Yet not My will, but Yours shall be.”
In the garden, Jesus tried,
Where love and anguish intertwined.
Obedience through agony —
The Son of God in victory.
The garden and the cup,
The trial of the King of love.

Verse 2 – The Betrayal and the Ear

The traitor came with kiss of night,
A wound disguised in borrowed light.
“Rabbi,” he said — deceitful friend,
The serpent’s lie, the holy end.

The swords were drawn, the chaos flared,
A servant’s cry cut through the air.
But Jesus turned and reached to heal —
His mercy stronger than the steel.

“Put down your sword,” His voice replied,
“Shall I not drink what’s been supplied?”

Even in betrayal’s sting,
Compassion crowned the suffering King.

Bridge – The Obedient Son

No greater trial has ever been,
Than God made flesh to bear our sin.
He could have called the angels down,
But love refused the earthly crown.

From garden tears to Calvary,
He passed the test for you and me.
Through blood and silence, trust and pain,
The King obeyed — salvation gained.

Final Chorus – Triumphant

“Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me;
Yet not My will, but Yours shall be.”
In the garden, Jesus tried,
Where heaven wept and hell defied.
Through every wound, through every scar,
The faithful Son became our star.
The garden and the cup —
The trial that redeemed us.

Outro (Soft, reverent)

Not My will, but Yours be done…
The trial ended —
and love had won.

Verse 1

Jeremiah stood where the temple fell,
The smoke of the city, a sorrow to tell.
He wept for a people that turned from the flame,
Yet carried God’s fire, though none said his name.

They struck him, they chained him, they left him to die,
But heaven remembered each tear from his eye.
Still he cried out through the ruin and rain,
“Great is Your mercy — forever the same.”

Chorus

Tears of the faithful fall into Your hands,
Through sorrow and ashes, Your promise still stands.
Morning by morning, Your mercy is new,
Great is Your faithfulness — I cling to You.

Verse 2

Jeremiah spoke though his heart was torn,
Your word in his bones — a fire reborn.
He saw Your compassion in ruin and stone,
A whisper of hope where none could be known.

The prophet of sorrow, yet voice of grace,
Found light in the shadows, saw God’s face.
He taught us to hope when the night won’t end,
That mercy will rise again and again.

Bridge (gentle, rising with strings)

Jeremiah cried, “My soul still recalls,
The pain and the ruin, the endless walls.
Yet I remember, and dare to believe —
Your love never fails, Your heart never leaves.”

(Crescendo with choir)
Because of Your love we are not consumed,
Your compassions awaken — they bloom!

Final Chorus

Tears of the faithful fall into Your hands,
Through sorrow and ashes, Your promise still stands.
Morning by morning, Your mercy is new,
Great is Your faithfulness — forever true.

(Outro – solo voice, quiet piano)
Great is Your faithfulness…
O Lord, I cling to You.

Verse 1
A crown was promised, yet fields still call,
A shepherd boy beneath the stars.
Oil upon David’s brow would fall,
But still he guards the lambs afar.
The giant fell, the people cheered,
The king grew dark, the hatred neared.
Through palace halls, the envy burned,
And heaven’s fire within him learned.

Chorus
He waits, though hunted through the night,
He sings beneath the cave’s dim light.
“Have mercy, Lord, my refuge be—
Your timing holds the crown for me.”
Through years of tears, through silent pain,
The anointed waits in holy flame.

Verse 2
Through desert winds and shadowed stone,
David weeps where angels roam.
Saul’s spear pursued, yet mercy stayed,
The blade withheld though vengeance prayed.
He will not strike what God has sealed,
He bows instead upon the field.
“Not by my hand, O Lord of hosts—
You lift the humble, guard the lost.”

Chorus
He waits, though hunted through the night,
He sings beneath the cave’s dim light.
“Have mercy, Lord, my refuge be—
Your timing holds the crown for me.”
Through years of tears, through silent pain,
The anointed waits in holy flame.

Bridge (soaring)
Out of Adullam’s hollowed cries,
His psalms ascend to endless skies.
“My heart is steadfast, Lord, my King—
I’ll trust Your hand in everything.”
Through storms, through spears, through endless days,
He worships still, he learns to praise.
And when the dawn at last appears,
David rises through his tears.

Final Chorus (majestic)
He waits no more — the dawn has come,
The battle’s past, the race is run.
From harp to throne, from tears to flame,
God’s promise stands, His word remains.
Through years of loss, through trial’s reign,
The anointed waits — and heaven reigns.

Outro (psalm-like)
“You lifted me from the pit unseen,
And set me where Your light has been.
The crown was never mine to claim—
It’s Yours, forever, in Jesus’ name.”

Verse 1
A decree of men, a snare of pride,
A faithful heart they sought to bind.
Yet Daniel knelt as days before,
His prayers ascended evermore.
The curtains open toward the light,
Three times he prayed both day and night.
While lions waited, heaven smiled —
Faith was forged through every trial.

Chorus
This is the ultimate trial —
When the world turns cold and hostile.
I won’t bow, I won’t deny,
My soul belongs to the Most High.
Though the darkness prowls and waits,
Your angel guards my fate.
Through the fire and denial —
You prove me in the trial.

Verse 2
The king’s decree, the stone was rolled,
The night grew deep, the tale retold.
But down below, no fear, no cry —
Just whispers reaching to the sky.
At dawn, a voice broke through the gloom,
“Daniel, are you still with whom?”
And from the pit came calm reply,
“My God has shut the lions’ eyes.”

Chorus
This is the ultimate trial —
When the world turns cold and hostile.
I won’t bow, I won’t deny,
My soul belongs to the Most High.
Though the darkness prowls and waits,
Your angel guards my fate.
Through the fire and denial —
You prove me in the trial.

Bridge (rising)
No crown, no chain, no law, no threat,
Can bind the soul whom You have met.
From dens of fear to royal halls,
Your justice rises, mercy calls!
The faithful stand when all seems lost,
Redeemed by grace, no matter the cost!

Final Chorus (grand, orchestral)
This is the ultimate trial —
Faith refined, pure and vital.
When I’m tested, I won’t yield,
Your truth remains my shield.
Though the lions prowl and roar,
You are Lord forevermore!
Through the fire and denial —
I’m proven in the trial.

Outro (soft, reverent)
In the den, Your presence stayed…
The trial passed — but faith remained.

Verse 1

He stood on Carmel’s burning height,
Called down fire in the fading light.
The heavens roared, the idols fell,
A prophet’s cry the skies would tell.
But when the queen’s dark word was sent,
The victor’s heart in sorrow bent.
Through desert dust his spirit fled,
Elijah wept, his soul near dead.

Chorus

From the fire to the whisper, from the storm to the hush,
You speak through silence when the soul is crushed.
You lift the fallen when hope expires,
You are the whisper beyond the fire.
Though mountains quake and tempests rage,
Your mercy writes a gentler page.
In lonely caves, when hearts conspire,
You are the whisper beyond the fire.

Verse 2

Beneath the broom tree, tears were sown,
“Take my life, Lord, I am alone.”
But angels came with bread and rest,
With heaven’s peace upon his chest.
Forty nights through shadowed lands,
He reached the mountain made by hands.
He cried, “They’ve torn Your altars down,
And I alone bear heaven’s crown.”

Bridge (soft → powerful)

A wind tore through the ancient stone,
But God was silent—He stood alone.
The earth then shook, the fire came bright,
Yet stillness carried Heaven’s light.
Then came a voice, so small, so near—
“Rise up, Elijah, your call is clear.”
Not in the wrath, but in the sigh,
He found the heart of Adonai.

Final Chorus (soaring, orchestral)

From the fire to the whisper, the wounded rise again,
Your gentle Word restores the broken men.
In the quiet breath, the soul aspires—
You are the whisper beyond the fire.
Through fear and night, Your truth remains,
Through lonely hearts, Your love sustains.
Elijah wept, yet You inspire—
You are the whisper beyond the fire.

Coda (soft, heavenly fade)

When all is still and faith grows tired,
You are the whisper… beyond the fire.
