Watson Wayne - Every Now And Again lyrics

It's good to be lonely every now and again To be parted from the ones you adore To sit at a table for two all alone And take a look at the world around you At people with no one to go home to Some with a place to belong Others consumed by their weakness And another when weak seems so strong [Chorus:] Lord, let me be at peace wherever I am Satisfied with all I have--a faithful friend And know I am grateful "Cause if it makes me love you even more I know--I'm sure It's good to be lonely every now and again It's good to go down to defeat now and then To fail at some noble pursuit To fall short of the prize And find in His eyes There's nothing your victory can do To secure higher favor He cannot love you more than now Winners and losers All are the same somehow [Chorus] And it's good to know sorrow To be closely acquainted with grief To be showered with tears No reason to cheer To find in Christ your only relief [Chorus] I'm alone a lot. One spring Saturday in a small-town "Mom and Pop" restaurant, I wasn't just alone, I was lonely. I sat and just watched. Families together, two elderly ladies out for lunch, a mother with two unhappy babies. Next time you go on a pity binge, Go off and watch the world go by and count your blessings.
