Lyrics:
We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things

'Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
As long as we have faith to believe

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know that pain reminds this heart
That this is not our home

What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
What if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are your mercies in disguise

A few years ago i was so depressed, i tried everything to get myself to feel something. I now realize that if i never went through those things and my depression, i would have never found Him! He works in ways at the time we don't understand, but AMAZING ways!

[Eric Martin]

A remarkably beautiful and helpful composition. I first heard it at a church the day after my best friend died. It has helped make the mourning bearable. Thank you Laura Story for YOUR blessing.

I deal with depression a lot. This song gets me through the hardest times.

I lost my mother very suddenly a few years ago as well. I know only too well how painful that loss is. God will never leave you. He is always there... waiting and listening to you. Always. "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned." -Isaiah 43:2

[Marrion Lardera]

This song breaks me down into tears... everytime I hear this song it reminds me that God never left me and I must realize that...

[MoMoMyPup10]

All things (ALL) work together that we would know Him. That, is the reason we are here -- to know the grace of God who never leaves us or forsakes us. The 'work' on the cross is completely and utterly life changing. Jhn 16:33 "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."

[Javier Alcaraz]

A few year ago my mom died by a suicide. I was only twelve at the time and the pain from her loss ripped me in half and completely altered the way I look at life. For along time I blamed myself for what she did. I hated her for the things she had put me through and the promises she had made that she never fulfilled. I hated God for allowing her and others to hurt me. I have been on and off emotionally since then but it's songs like this and good people that make me proud I never gave up. RIP JW
