Sometimes joy feels like the last thing you can grab onto.But here’s the truth nobody puts on Christmas merch:Joy isn’t fragile — it’s forged.It rises in the fire, not outside of it.
This week’s FAA track, “Joy in the Fire,” is all about the kind of joy hell can’t steal and darkness can’t smother.The kind that stands tall when circumstances fall apart.The kind Jesus gives, the Spirit sustains, and the enemy absolutely hates.
If you need a anthem that lights up the dark and reminds your soul that God is still moving — this one’s for you.
Hit play, lift your shield, and let joy do what joy does best:fight back.
Lyrics:”Joy In The Fire”
[VERSE 1]When the night comes crashing inAnd the world feels paper-thin,I remember who You are,And joy lights up the dark.Not the fragile kind that breaks,Not the kind that fear can take —This is joy that stands its ground,Till the enemy backs down.
[CHORUS]I’ve got joy in the fire,Faith lifting higher,Light breaking through the black of the night.Joy in the pressure,Stronger than ever,Hope that refuses to give up the fight.You are my strength, my shield, my song —And this joy keeps marching on.
[VERSE 2]Every arrow aimed at me,You extinguish faithfully.When the lies come dressed as truth,Joy exposes every root.Not a mood or quick escape,Not a smile that’s looking fake —This is Spirit-forged and real,Joy the darkness cannot steal.
[CHORUS]I’ve got joy in the fire,Faith lifting higher,Light breaking through the black of the night.Joy in the pressure,Stronger than ever,Hope that refuses to give up the fight.You are my strength, my shield, my song —And this joy keeps marching on.
[VERSE 3]When the world says “give in now,”You remind me who You are somehow.Your promises don’t shake or bend,Your goodness rises without end.So let the shadows make their claim —Your joy burns brighter than their flame.I stand firm and lift my voice,’Cause joy in Jesus is my choice.
[VERSE 4]Let the cold winds try to roar,Let the chaos crowd my door —Joy is not a fairytale,Joy is where Your truth prevails.This is war and I stand tall,Joy declares You over all.Every season, every storm,Joy in You becomes my form.
[BRIDGE]Joy defies the darkness,Joy refuses fear,Joy becomes the weaponWhen the fight gets near.Faith becomes my armor,Peace becomes my stand,Joy becomes the signalThat the battle’s in Your hands.
[FINAL CHORUS]I’ve got joy in the fire,Faith lifting higher,Light breaking through the black of the night.Joy in the pressure,Stronger than ever,Hope that refuses to give up the fight.You are my strength, my shield, my song —And this joyKeeps marching on.
