My thoughts they overwhelm me
My mind cannot contain
The pain that is within me
Why
I long for understanding
I live to know the peace
That comes with being sure of something
My eyes are blind to your ways oh Lord
Yet I've seen you love and care so
I rest in your knowing
Though I may not know
I take on your strength as though it were my own
Standing in the promises
Your word for me provides
I find therein the answer to the question
Why
My complaint today is bitter but sweet is your reply
My questioning still lingers though Why
You know each road I travel down
My heart and yours are one
I just don't see the good in all things
My eyes are blind to your ways oh, Lord
And I've seen you love and care so
I rest in your knowing
Though I may not know
I take on your strength as though it were my own
Standing in the promises
Your word for me provides
I find therein the answer to the question
Why
Through suffering and sorrow come peace beyind belief
For our present set of circumstances
Serve only to remind us of the gold we can't yet see
I rest in your knowing
Though I may not know
I take on your strength as though it were my own
Standing in the promises
Your word for me provides
I find therein the answer to the question
Why
