[Saxophone Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I kicked that door ā€˜cause I was mad ā€œWhy not me? I’m good. Why can’t I have that?ā€ When it wouldn’t open, I slammed it shut Said, ā€œFine, I never get nice things—guess I’m stuck.ā€ Didn’t see the danger waiting on the other side Thought it was rejection, but You were saving my life [Verse 2] I used to think You were holding me back. But now I see You kept me on track. What I called loss was really Your grace. Closing the doors that I shouldn't chase. [Solo] [Bridge] All those times I thought You let me down. You were holding me up when no one was around. Every slammed door was love in disguise. Now I see grace where I once saw goodbye. [Pre-Chorus] I was fighting for a future that would leave me torn. Didn’t know Your mercy was behind that closed door. [Chorus] So I thank God for closed doors. For every time You blocked what I was reaching for. When I was chasing things not meant for me. You were saving me from what I couldn’t see. Now I’m standing in a better story. With peace I never asked for. I thank God… I thank God for closed doors. [Bridge] All those times I thought You let me down You were holding me up when no one was around Every slammed door was love in disguise Now I see grace where I once saw goodbye [Pre-Chorus] I was fighting for a future that would leave me torn. Didn’t know Your mercy was behind that closed door. [Chorus] So I thank God for closed doors. For every time You blocked what I was reaching for. When I was chasing things not meant for me. You were saving me from what I couldn’t see. Now I’m standing in a better story. With peace I never asked for. I thank God… I thank God for closed doors. [Verse 3] Now I don’t beg for every open way. I trust You’ll guide me better than my way. Not every blessing comes with a key. Sometimes "no" sets my spirit free. (mmm…mmm..Thank God For The Closed Doors) [Outro]
