Gratitude |
| 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 … |
