Tune: "Faith is the Victory"
Verse 1
Jo-seph was sold in E-gypt land,
His bro-thers did him wrong.
The ru-ler bought him and he found
A ser-vant for so long.
He proved to be a worth-y slave.
He rose in pow'r and might,
And all was go-ing well with him
'Til he caught some-one's sight.
Refrain
Jo-seph you are the one.
You are the fav-'rite son.
God will be with you each day
Un-til your task is done.
Verse 2
The wife of Po-ti-phar one day
A-bout him told some lies,
And he spent years in pri-son, but
On God he still re-lies.
One night the king had troub-ling dreams
'Bout cat-tle and some grain.
God gave him an-swers for the king.
He said there'd be no rain.
Refrain
Jo-seph you are the one.
You are the fav-'rite son.
God will be with you each day
Un-til your task is done.
Verse 3
The king put Jo-seph then in charge.
They saved for time of need.
The fam-ine was 'ore all the world,
And Jo-seph then did feed
The peo-ple of the land and then
His bro-thers came to buy.
When they learned Jo-seph was in pow'r
They feared that they would die.
Refrain
Jo-seph you are the one.
You are the fav-'rite son.
God will be with you each day
Un-til your task is done.
Verse 4
Now Jo-seph could have had them killed,
He was the one in charge,
But he was the for-giv-ing son,
His heart was ver-y large.
He cried with them and told them
"Have your fam-i-lies ar-rive".
Old Ja-cob came, he cried and cried
For Jo-seph was a-live!
Refrain
Jo-seph you are the one.
You are the fav-'rite son.
God will be with you each day
Un-til your task is done.
