The Answers Why
I asked the Lord one day why there were so many mountains in my life,
So much grief and heartache, so much trouble and strife?
I read His Word very carefully, looking for the answers why,
And deep within my soul, I heard His Spirit reply.
I am working all things out for your good;
Removing the debris that shouldn’t be there.
There is so much damage that sin has done,
There is so much I need to repair.
There are works that I am doing – if you could only understand –
I am fulfilling all My promises according to My Plan.
The mountains are for reminding you of My goodness and My love,
The weakness is to cause you to lean upon My arms above.
Rest upon My provision, and trust that I will guide you along Life’s way,
And rejoice in My grace and mercy that will lead you safely Home one day.
There’s a work I am doing inside your very heart,
So one day up in glory, My likeness to you I will impart;
So don’t fret about the things that you don’t understand,
Just trust My eternal wisdom, and know it’s all according to My Plan.

Being confident of this very thing,
that He which hath begun a good work in you
will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:6
