Taylor Pride’s 'Joy Comes in the Morning': A Musical Reminder of Morning’s Promise


Have you ever felt so weighted down that it seems like the night would never lead to dawn? Taylor Pride's 'Joy Comes in the Morning' captures that feeling, and points the listener to the promise we all have in Christ of a glorious transformation to renewal. The inspiration for this song came during a Lula Street Records songwriting camp, and basically wants to confirm to you that joy does come in the morning, just as promised in Psalm 30:5. 

Taylor Pride - Joy Comes In The Morning (Live)'Joy Comes in the Morning' is a declaration of faith, that when you are feeling at your lowest, weary and worn, there is hope. 'When I'm hurting when I'm weary / Lord I know that you are with me', what a powerful sense of God's unwavering support, and this feeling grows with each repetition. 

You can feel Taylor's conviction in the live recording - it's almost tangible. The raw emotion in his voice, together with a gospel-infused harmony, really finds its way into your heart. This song is such an encouragement, especially on those days when you feel like God's light isn't able to cut through the darkness. 

So, have a listen to 'Joy Comes in the Morning,' and may in remind you that no matter what you will be facing today, a new dawn is breaking: Joy always arrives fresh with the morning.

(Related scripture: Psalm 30:5; Isaiah 40:31; Psalm 46:1)

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Ebenezer" by David Dowdell: Faithful Before, Faithful Now, Faithful Forever

Looking back builds the courage to keep moving forward.  Samuel once set up a stone after a battle and named it Ebenezer, saying, “Till now the Lord has helped us.” That single stone became a marker, a physical reminder planted in the ground so nobody could walk past it and forget what God had done. “Ebenezer” by David Dowdell borrows that same idea. “Here I raise my Ebenezer, only by your help I’ve come,” the lyrics declare, and that line carries generations of gratitude.  Think about your own life for a moment. Where have you seen God show up? Maybe it was a financial provision you can’t fully explain, or a battle against sin you thought you’d never win. The song declares: “You’ve brought me victory in the battle against sin and self-defeat.” That’s a testimony, the kind worth remembering on your hardest days. Your Ebenezer.  Here’s why remembering matters so much. Psalm 77:11 says, “I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.” Y...

"No One Like You Jesus" by Morgan Starner: Why Only Jesus Can Carry Your Burdens

Who really deserves your loudest praise? “No One Like You Jesus” by Morgan Starner didn’t start in a studio. It started as a voice memo, hummed late at night, half-formed and unfinished. Morgan took that fragile melody into the studio and built it up, layer by layer, until it held over 100 stacked vocals. The result sounds like a celebration. Bright, rhythmic, and impossible to sit still while listening. That’s the point of this song… Gospel-pop with a modern pulse, made to move bodies and hearts at the same time.  Listen to the bridge, and you’ll hear a question underneath the beat: “Who else gonna take my burdens? Who else gonna get me through?” Morgan answers the question without hesitation. “No one else but You.”   Scripture asks the same question, thousands of years earlier. Here is how Moses responded after crossing the Red Sea: “Who is like you, O Lord, among the gods? Who is like you, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?” (Exodus 15:11, ESV...
