Playlist “Pain” – I Know

You don’t answer all my questions
But You hear me when I speak
You don’t keep my heart from breakin’
But when it does, You weep with me
You’re so close that I can feel You
When I’ve lost the words to pray
And though my eyes have never seen You
I’ve seen enough to say
I know that You are good
I know that You are kind
I know that You are so much more
Than what I leave behind
I know that I am loved
I know that I am safe
‘Cause even in the fire to live is Christ, to die is gain
I know that You are good
I don’t understand the sorrow
But You’re calm within the storm
Sometimes this weight is overwhelming
But I don’t carry it alone
You’re still close when I can’t feel You
I don’t have to be afraid
And though my eyes have never seen You
I’ve seen enough to say

On my darkest day, from my deepest pain
Through it all, my heart will choose to sing Your praise
On my darkest day, from my deepest pain
Through it all, my heart will choose to sing Your praise
On my darkest day, in my deepest pain
Through it all, my heart will choose to sing Your praise

This past week, my family got some really hard news. For the first time in my life, I know what it’s like to experience true heartbreak and sorrow. The future looks really daunting right now.

For the next few weeks, months – I don’t know how long – I’m going to be sharing some songs that have meant a lot to me during this time.

Even in my deepest pain, I know that He is good. Even in the heartbreak, I will choose to sing His praise.

I know that You are good, Father. Even when it’s hard, I choose to trust. I choose to praise.
