-thank you Lord-
And I thank You Lord
Yes, I thank You Lord
For the trials that come my way
In that way I can grow each day
As I let You lead
And I thank You Lord
For the patience those trials bring
In the process of growing
I can learn to care
But it goes against the way I am
To put my human nature down
And let the Spirit take control of all I do
Cause when those tirals come
My human nature shouts the things to do
And God's soft prompting can be easily ignored
this song has never reallie meant much to me other than another song of worship and appreciation and jus saying thanks to God... but as i sang the words todae...it finally jus occured to me what the words really meant...that God puts difficulties in our life so that we realise the importance of the dependance on Him and that we have to rely and trust in Him cos we are unable to go thru on our own strength...and in that way we grow each day as we let HIM lead and not me, myself and I leading
yeah and when those difficult times actually pop out.. my human nature DOES shout the things to do and more often than not i actually do give in to my human nature of responding and God's prompting is so so ignored...
and yeah i guess each time crap does happen... God is there prompting me to what he wants me to do... but my voice is always so much louder... i wanna be still and hear what He has to say...
today i jus realised that God does has His ways of seeing me thru trials....He jus does... and all ive gotta do is trust Him.. thank you Lord for helping me realise that it isnt the end when we fail... but yet You pull us up... thank YOu!!

hey there ,jo lee here ,
i reckon i know how u feel about this song ... i was goinn thru some rough time last year and i was reminded of this song. this song just come to my mind as i was doing my quiet time.
indeed that at times of trials and tribulation, we tend to wan to do things ourself , try to solve the problems on our own cos we just too impatience to wait for God's answer. we take matters to our own hands.
and i also come to know that, all these major , major stuff that has been going on in my life is at the time when i have put God aside , left Him behind . i reckon having trials in life is one way of God calling and drawing us back to His presence.thank you for that reminder once again ...

Hi there, thank you so much for posting the lyrics of this song up. I've been going through some trying times and even though I've prayed, I have been worried and afraid of the outcome. The Lord just answered my prayers today and I just wanted to rejoice in Him with a song of praise. This song was taught to me in my primary school and it touched me so deeply when I was young, even now (15 years later), I felt drawn to sing this. Your testimony of your own Christian life was a blessing to read. Thank you so much. God bless!
