Unexplainable Things

Intro] (Soft acoustic guitar fingerpicking layered with a gentle, melodic fiddle and a slow, brushed drum rhythm) ​[Verse 1] Sometimes I sit and I wonder where in this world I would be, If not for the twists and the turnarounds only the heavens can see. Would I be lying beside you, caught in the warmth of your grace, Or drifting completely without a clue, lost in a desolate place? Would life have been over and finished, taken before I could grow, If not for the unseen mercies running where deep waters flow? ​[Chorus] Oh, it’s all of these unexplainable things, The wonder and mystery Providence brings. Carried through storms when the road wasn’t clear, Finding a diamond where nobody looks down here. Bound by a purpose that time cannot break, A holy design that no shadow can take. Brought together by God, right where mercy begins, Caught in the beauty of unexplainable things. ​[Verse 2] I can’t help the way that my mind wants to wander and ponder the past, Counting the hours and measuring days that have drifted so fast. Would we be walking the coastland, feeling the salt on our skin? Asleep with my face in your hair as the quiet of evening rolls in? Maybe slipped an engagement ring onto your delicate hand, If time hadn't taken the detour it made through a weary, dry land. ​[Chorus] Oh, it’s all of these unexplainable things, The wonder and mystery Providence brings. Carried through storms when the road wasn’t clear, Finding a diamond where nobody looks down here. Bound by a purpose that time cannot break, A holy design that no shadow can take. Brought together by God, right where mercy begins, Caught in the beauty of unexplainable things. ​[Bridge] I stayed in a constant reflection, seeking the truth of this love, Never expecting to find it right here from the Father above. Now it is obvious, plain as the daylight that breaks on the shore, We’re bonded by something eternal that stands forevermore. My mind can finally settle, my spirit can lay down to rest, I know that the love He established will easily conquer the test. ​[Instrumental Solo] (Sweet, soaring fiddle solo trading off with warm acoustic guitar runs) ​[Chorus] Oh, it’s all of these unexplainable things, The wonder and mystery Providence brings. Carried through storms when the road wasn’t clear, Finding a diamond where nobody looks down here. Bound by a purpose that time cannot break, A holy design that no shadow can take. Brought together by God, right where mercy begins, Caught in the beauty of unexplainable things. ​[Outro] No need for the questions... No wondering why... His hand was in every dark hour that passed on by. Just another mystery... Just another grace... Another unexplainable thing. (Fiddle sustains softly as the acoustic guitar gently fades)
