Thank You Lord
For the trials that come my way
In that way I can grow each day
As I let You lead
And I thank You Lord
For the patience those trials bring
In that process of growing
I can learn to care
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
'Cause when those trials come
My human nature shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting can be easily ignored
I thank you, Lord,
with each trial I feel inside,
that you're there to help,
lead and guide me away from wrong.
'Cause you promised, Lord,
that with every testing,
that your way of escaping is easier to bear.
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
'Cause when those trials come
My human nature shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting can be easily ignored
I thank you, Lord,
for the victory that growing brings.
In surrender of everything
life is so worth while.
And I thank you, Lord,
that when everything's put in place,
out in front I can see your face,
and it's there you belong.
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
'Cause when those trials come
My human nature shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting can be easily ignored
So give me strength to do Thy Holy Will my Lord
My Lord
