It speaks so deeply to me right now. I know I'm being vague about what we're going through right now and maybe in the future I'll share the details but right now, while we're in the thick of it, I don't think I should say too much.
I'm sure this song will mean something different to everyone, but it just tells me that even though we don't know what's going to happen in our current situation, Jesus is here with us. He's carrying us through it and blessing us along the way. Maybe not in the way that we would choose, but there's blessings in our trials nontheless.
Lyrics:
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
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love is 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 is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
As long as we have faith to believe
When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know that pain reminds this heart
That this is not our home
What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
What if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are your mercies in disguise
