As Life Unfolds
I was a little girl
on my
Grandfather's knee
he looked at me quiet
and whispered to me.
He said when you
grow up you'll see that it's true
You don't make your life, you follow it through.
It's true my little
dear, as your life unfolds
You'll see the greater plan, as you are growing old
And God works through the many events
If you're patient with him, he will be your best friend.
I was talking to
Jesus
Just the other day
Pouring out my heart
When I thought I heard him say.
You think you own
your life, but that's not really true
Your life is not your own, you don't live just for you.
You'll see my little
dear, as your life unfolds
there is a greater plan, and you are growing old
It's time to know the Lord in the working of events
He loves you in spite of your human defense.
When I was a little
girl
On my grandpa's knee
he looked at me fondly
and whispered to me.
He said when you
grow up you'll see that it's true
You don't make your life, you follow it through.
It's true my little
dear, as your life unfolds
You'll see the greater plan, as you are growing old
Come to know the Lord, the outworking of events
Now I'm starting to find out he was right in the end.
Look for the Lord in the working of events
And you'll come to find out He is right in the end.
