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

down 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.

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.
