A Spring of Joy

Yes, I’m hurting, in so many ways and for so many people.

But hurting brings my heart to Him, in so many ways.

He gives me eyes to see.

And there is no better place to be.

Longing for home today.

I’ve seen hard times and I’ve been told
There isn’t any wonder that I fall.
Why do we suffer, crossing off the years?
There must be a reason for it all.

I’ve trusted in You, Jesus, to save me from my sin.
Heaven is the place I call my home,
But I keep on getting caught up in this world I’m living in,
And Your voice it sometimes fades before I know.

Hurtin’ brings my heart to You, crying with my need,
Depending on Your love to carry me.
The love that shed His blood for all the world to see;
This must be the reason for it all.

Hurtin’ brings my heart to You, a fortress in the storm,
When what I wrap my heart around is gone.
I give my heart so easily to the ruler of this world
When the one who loves me most will give me all.

In all the things that cause me pain You give me eyes to see.
I do believe but help my unbelief.
I’ve seen hard times, and I’ve been told
There is a reason for it all.
