lesson from above

Verse 1] I met her in a season I was broken inside Thought love was the answer, thought she was the sign I gave her my heart with no armor, no pride Every promise I whispered, every tear I denied I lost myself tryna be what she needed Prayed for forever, but God had a reason Some loves don’t stay, they just teach you to see Who you are becoming, who you’re meant to be [Pre-Chorus] I was asking “why” while Heaven stayed quiet Now I see the blessing in the silence Every goodbye carved truth in my chest You didn’t take her away, You gave me myself [Chorus] So thank You, God, for the love that hurt For the fire that burned, for the truth I learned Even if she wasn’t meant to stay I’m grateful for the lesson of loving that way Thank You, God, for the tears I cried For the nights I broke, for the strength inside I don’t curse her name, I don’t feel regret I thank You for the love — and the lesson I kept [Verse 2] I confused attachment for destiny Held on tight when You were testing me She was a chapter, not the whole damn book But I needed that pain to take a deeper look I loved her pure, I loved her real Even heartbreak taught me how to feel Now my heart’s wiser, my spirit free That version of me had to die for me [Build] If love was the storm, You were the shore If she was the question, You were the door I don’t hate the past, I don’t run from scars They’re proof I loved with an open heart [Chorus – Drop] So thank You, God, for the love that hurt For the fire that burned, for the truth I learned Even if she wasn’t meant to stay I’m grateful for the lesson of loving that way Thank You, God, for the man I became For the loss, the growth, for the change I don’t beg for her, I don’t feel regret I thank You for the love — and the lesson I kept [Bridge – Emotional Break] She wasn’t my ending, she was my mirror Showed me my wounds, made my purpose clearer Some souls pass through to wake you up Not to stay, but to teach you love [Final Chorus – Lift] Thank You, God, I finally see You were protecting what’s meant for me That love was real, but it wasn’t mine Just a moment in Your perfect time Thank You, God, for the peace I found For the faith rebuilt from broken ground I don’t ask “why” — I just say amen Grateful for the love… and who I am [Outro] Some lessons feel like loss Until you realize they saved you.
