[Opening Chorus] What you meant for evil, God turned toward good, Bread in the famine where death once had stood. A pit and a prison could not cancel grace; The dream came to harvest in an unexpected place. [Verse 1] Pharaoh saw cattle rise fat from the Nile, Then lean cattle swallowed the strong in a while. Seven full ears and seven blasted by wind; No wise man in Egypt could tell how they end. Joseph was summoned, shaved, clothed, and brought near: Seven years plenty, then seven of fear. Store up the harvest before hunger's breath; Pharaoh raised Joseph to govern beneath. [Verse 2] Brothers came bowing with silver for grain, Never imagining the face they had slain. Tests brought Benjamin and truth to the room; Judah stood pleading to shoulder his doom. Joseph could hold back his weeping no more; He named himself brother and closed every door. [Changed Chorus] What you meant for evil, God turned toward life, A household preserved through the edge of the knife. Come down to Goshen; let Jacob behold The son he had buried alive and grown old. [Bridge] Pharaoh gave wagons; the family came. Jacob embraced him and blessed Pharaoh's name. Years later, the brothers feared vengeance would start; Joseph spoke mercy from a reconciled heart. [Final Chorus] What you meant for evil, God turned toward good, To save many people with providential food. The coffin in Egypt still carried this plea: "When God brings you homeward, carry up me." The dream came to harvest; the promise moved on, Through famine and forgiveness toward covenant dawn.
