Gratitude (Key-C-D-Premiere Performance Plus w/ Background Vocals) |
Send some rain, would You send some rain? |
'Cause the earth is dry and needs to drink again |
And the sun is high and we are sinking in the shade |
Would You send a cloud, thunder long and loud? |
Let the sky grow black and send some mercy down |
Surely You can see that we are thirsty and afraid |
But maybe not, not today |
Maybe You’ll provide in other ways |
And if that’s the case … |
We’ll give thanks to You with gratitude |
For lessons learned in how to thirst for You |
How to bless the very sun that warms our face |
If You never send us rain |
Daily bread, give us daily bread |
Bless our bodies, keep our children fed |
Fill our cups, then fill them up again tonight |
Wrap us up and warm us through |
Tucked away beneath our sturdy roofs |
Let us slumber safe from danger’s view this time |
Or maybe not, not today |
Maybe You’ll provide in other ways |
And if that’s the case … |
We’ll give thanks to You with gratitude |
A lesson learned to hunger after You |
That a starry sky offers a better view |
If no roof is overhead |
And if we never taste that bread |
Oh, the differences that often are between |
Everything we want and what we really need |
So grant us peace, Jesus, grant us peace |
Move our hearts to hear a single beat |
Between alibis and enemies tonight |
Or maybe not, not today |
Peace might be another world away |
And if that’s the case … |
We’ll give thanks to You with gratitude |
For lessons learned in how to trust in You |
That we are blessed beyond what we could ever dream |
In abundance or in need |
And if You never grant us peace … |
But, Jesus, would You please … |
