Blessings

We pray for blessings

We pray for peace

Comfort for family

Protection while we sleep

We pray for healing

For prosperity

We pray for Your mighty hand

To ease our suffering

And all the while

You hear each spoken need

Yet love us way too much

To give us lesser things

'Cause what if Your blessings

Come through raindrops?

What if Your healing

Comes through tears?

What if a thousand sleepless nights

Are what it takes

To know You're near?

What if trials of this life

Are Your mercies in disguise?

We pray for wisdom

Your voice to hear

We cry in anger

When we cannot feel You near

We doubt Your goodness

We doubt Your love

As if every promise

From Your Word's not enough

And all the while

You hear each desperate plea

And long that

We'd have faith to believe

'Cause what if Your

Blessings come through raindrops?

What if Your healing

Comes through tears?

And what if a thousand sleepless nights

Are what it takes to know You're near?

And what if trials of this life

Are Your mercies in disguise?

When friends betray us

When darkness

Seems to win, we know

This pain reminds our heart

That this is not

This is not our home

It's not our home

'Cause what if Your blessings

Come through raindrops?

What if Your healing

Comes through tears?

And what if a thousand sleepless nights

Are what it takes to know You're near?

What if my greatest disappointments

Or the aching of this life

Is a revealing

Of a greater thirst

This world can't satisfy?
