Crystal Lewis — Why

[Verse 1] My thoughts they overwhelm me My mind cannot contain The pain that is within me why I long for understanding I live to know the peace That comes with being sure of something [Pre-Chorus] My eyes are blind to your ways oh Lord Yet I've seen you love and care so [Chorus] I rest in your knowing Though I may not know I take on your strength as though it were my own Standing on the promises Your word for me provides I find therein the answer to the question Why [Verse 2] My complaint today is bitter but sweet is your reply My questioning still lingers though Why You know each road I travel down My heart and yours are one I just don't see the good in all things [Pre-Chorus] My eyes are blind to your ways oh, Lord And I've seen you love and care so [Chorus] I rest in your knowing Though I may not know I take on your strength as though it were my own Standing on the promises Your word for me provides I find therein the answer to the question Why, why [Bridge] Through suffering and sorrow come peace beyond belief For our present set of circumstances Serve only to remind us of the gold we can't yet see [Chorus] I rest in your knowing Though I may not know I take on your strength as though it were my own Standing on the promises Your word for me provides I find therein oh the answer to the question Why, why [Outro] To the question why, why, why, why, why [Instrumental]
