Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his other sons
He loved him as the son of his old age
And by his love he made for him a coat of many colors
But through envy, animosity had fueled his other sons’ rage

Then Joseph had a dream one night and told it to his brothers
Your sheaves had gathered round and bowed to mine
And still another dream I had the sun, the moon, and stars
Bowed down to me, yet all could see that Joseph knew not why

His brothers grew in jealousy; his father contained all he could
What they meant for evil, God meant it for good

Then Israel told Joseph, come, I’ll send you to your brothers
His coat of many colors then they stripped
Let’s see what comes of this master of all dreams with no one to deliver
His life they spared, but without care they threw him in the pit

They spied a band of Ishmaelites en route to Egypt going down
They lifted up devising eyes to gaze
We’ll sell him to the Ishmaelites, and dip his color coat in blood
His father saw, couldn’t bear it all, and mourned for many days

Now Jacob couldn’t understand what God intended that he would
What they meant for evil, God meant it for good

Jacob had to now withstand such pain he never knew he could
But what was meant for evil, God meant it for good

When dreams of fate unto him came, Joseph confided in his God
With wisdom unsurpassed, by God he reigned
His storehouse blessed the earth with grain ‘midst famine and amidst affliction
On Israel distress befell, to Egypt down they came

Recalling dreams he’d dreamt of them, he saw and recognized his brothers
They pleaded humbly recognizing not
Through tests of love their hearts declared their guilt and love unto their father
Cried he fervidly, I am Joseph! He who sent me here was God

His brothers couldn’t understand, what Joseph now understood
What they meant for evil, God meant it for good

It’s often hard to understand, far more be misunderstood
What is meant for evil, God meant it for good
Although intent be evil, God meant it for good
