I’ve fixed a lot of things With these two hands, Found my way through trouble Best I can. But every now and then There comes a hill too steep, And pushing any harder Won’t bring me peace. [Chorus] When what usually works don’t work, I won’t just push harder. When the road gets dark And the night gets longer, I’ll take that little faith And lay it at His feet. When what usually works don’t work, I’ll pray deeper. [Verse 2] Some doors won’t open No matter what I try. Some answers don’t come Just because I ask why. A little faith can carry Farther than these hands, And some mountains only move When I quit making plans. [Chorus] When what usually works don’t work, I won’t just push harder. When the road gets dark And the night gets longer, I’ll take that little faith And lay it at His feet. When what usually works don’t work, I’ll pray deeper. [Bridge] Some mountains move, Some make me wait. There are battles strength Was never meant to take. So I’ll get still And seek Him there— Some things in this life [Verse 1] Are only reached by prayer. [Final Chorus] When what usually works don’t work, I won’t just push harder. I’ll quit trying to carry What belongs to the Father. Just a little faith, Lord, That’s enough for me. When what usually works don’t work, I’ll pray deeper. [Outro] A little faith… A quiet prayer… And leave the mountain In His care.
