Providence

Days go by and each new thing

Reminds me of your providence

My heart is beckoned to sing

It`s the only thing that makes sense

When I see the face of a young girl

With a sign in her hand, begging for life

I wish I could set her free and watch her twirl

I wish I could cut loose her chains with a knife

Somehow in the midst of it all

I am reminded of your love for us

How you’ve freed us from the fall

Set us apart for your purpose

When I fear the storms ahead

And your power to give and take

I wish for the escape your promises have said

For healing to reign for your name’s sake

And in the midst of it all

I am reminded of your power to protect

That you hear us every time we call

You restore lives that were once wrecked

Constantly I see your providence

Praise to the One who makes all things new

Praise to the God who gives us life

Praise to the One who restores our souls

Praise to you, God, the One who provides
