God has already clearly told us ways to live today that will help you through the challenges. Rejoice always. Pray without ceasing. Give thanks in all circumstances — that is His will for you. Seek the Lord and His strength; seek His presence continually. This song is more wisdom than diary. It is a call to trust the God who makes His will plain in Scripture and walks with those who seek Him.

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Three threads woven tight in a beautiful cord
A rhythm of living designed by the Lord
You’ve been searching and asking for what you should do
Well, look at the word that He’s speaking to you...
[Verse 1: Rejoice]
It starts with a shift in the atmosphere
Choosing the light when the shadow is near
It’s a joy that is deeper than feelings or sight
A flame that stays burning right through the night
No matter the trial, no matter the cost
We sing for the victory, we don’t count the lost
We carry the promise, we hold to the voice
In the middle of everything... we just rejoice.
[Verse 2: Pray]
And when the room empties and silence takes hold
And the weight of the world feels heavy and cold
You don’t need a sermon, you don’t need a crowd
To open the heavens and cry out aloud
It’s a constant connection, a breath in the soul
A quiet devotion that’s making us whole
In the morning, the evening, the dark, and the day
Without any ceasing... we pull back and pray.
[Verse 3: Give Thanks]
Then look at the pieces left in your hand
Even the ones you don’t quite understand
For the bread on the table, the breath in the chest
For the seasons of waiting, the moments of rest
A heart of thanksgiving can break every chain
Finding the mercy inside of the pain
For the grace that is running, unmatched and free
In all of these things... give thanks, let it be.
[Chorus]
This is the will of the Father above!
Revealed in the light of His perfect love!
First Thessalonians, the truth is so clear
Five, sixteen through eighteen is telling us here:
Rejoice always, never stop when you pray
Give thanks in all things, every hour of the day!
This is His will!
Yeah, this is His will!
[Outro]
Rejoice...
Pray...
Give thanks...
It’s been sitting next to us the whole time.
