I was just thinking what a wonderful life this is,
Though we suffer grief and pain,
But knowing when we suffer,
We’re doing it in God’s name.

There is a reason for all that we endure,
We may not see it now.
But God’s word doesn’t tells us,
Not when, or even how.

Sometimes I feel like giving up,
Do you ever feel that way?
But then I start to think about,
The blessings of yesterday.

I think how good God has been to me,
The blessings He’s poured out.
And then I start to feel so guilty,
For living in such doubt.

I wouldn’t want to change my place,
Or live in any foreign land.
I believe I’m where God wants me,
It’s always been His plan.

I don’t know why some suffer,
More than others do,
But there’s got to be a reason,
To know is not for you.

Someday we’ll understand,
When He says it’s time to know.
But that may not be,
Until He calls us home.
