This song has "spoken" to me for years...it seems to be a good one for me today. Joseph is in prison as he sings this song. He realizes that calling out to God is the only way for him.
You Know Better Than I - Lyrics
I thought I did whats right
I thought I had the answers
I thought I chose the surest road
But that road brought me here
So I put up a fight
And told you how to help me
Now just when I have given up
The truth is coming clear
You know better than I
You know the way
Ive let go the need to know why
For you know better than I
If this has been a test
I cannot see the reason
But maybe knowing I dont know
Is part of getting through
I try to do whats best
And faith has made it easy
To see the best thing I can do
Is put my trust in you
For You know better than I
You know the way
Ive let go the need to know why
For you know better than I
I saw one cloud and thought it was a sky
I saw a bird and thought that I could follow
But it was you who taught that bird to fly
If I let you reach me will you teach me
For You know better than I
You know the way
Ive let go the need to know why
Ill take what answers you supply
You know better than I
I'm sending this one to Tracy, my OCC team mate. I hope she clicks through.
ReplyDeleteHi Jo Ann!
ReplyDeleteI am the "Tracy" that Marion referred to...and YES, I clicked through! :) What an incredible and interesting journey you have been on! Thank you for sharing your story. It's amazing how each person's journey is so different, but how God is the author of each. I knew the Lord for many years, but it took personal tragedy and suffering for me to fully surrender to Him! I used to wish that there would have been an "easier" way, but now I wouldn't change any of it! God doesn't need an editor so my story is perfect as is...and so is yours!
God bless you and know that there are many more chapters to come, Tracy
