LIFE’S NOT ALWAYS AS IT SEEMS
A different route from A to B
And the plans you’ve made come tumbling down
When you’re questioning the why
And it’s hard to see the light
And you’re praying for the wind to change
And though the pain is strong
And it’s hard to carry on
I know that this is true
My God cares for you
All hope has disappeared
And you’re running out of tears
I can tell you He is near
For my God cares for you
Yes He cares for you
When no answers can be found
As the waves come crashing round
And you find you’re driven to your knees
When you’re overwhelmed with fear
And it feels like it’s been years
You’ve been asking God please rescue me
Don’t you know that His arms are strong enough to carry you
Lift you up, in the safety of His love
Just hold on, He will come, The Lord our God will comfort you
Give you strength enough to see you through the storm
