Flowers

Well, blue skies and hillsides feel so far away And I wrote in my notebook that I've seen better days Than the ones as of late, I can't bear the weight The rain won't stop pouring out my window pane And I haven't left my bedroom in 76 days I wish something would change 'Cause I'm losing faith So I brought it up in a desperate prayer Lord, why are you keeping me here? Then He said to me, "Child, I'm planting seeds I'm a good God and I have a good plan So trust that I'm holding a watering can And someday you'll see that flowers grow in the valley" So whatever the reason, I'm barely getting by I'll trust it's a season knowing that you're by my side Every step of the way And I'll be okay 'Cause I brought it up in a desperate prayer Lord, why are you keeping me here? Then He said to me, "Child, I'm planting seeds I'm a good God and I have a good plan" So trust that I'm holding a watering can And someday you'll see that flowers grow in the valley Mm, mm When I'm on the mountain and looking down below I'll see a valley of flowers that needed time to grow And I'll thank you for the rain the hurt and days of pain And I'll bring it up in a grateful prayer Thank you, Jesus, for keeping me there You know just what I need, and you've planted seeds 'Cause you're a good God with a real good plan And you hold my world and a watering can So I can have peace 'cause flowers grow in the valley
