V6-MINI

[Intro] Another day, another question Another piece I cannot find I’m searching through the wreckage For the meaning left behind [Verse 1] I’ve tried to walk the narrow road To bear the weight I’m called to bear But sometimes all the good I sow Seems to disappear in air I’ve watched the innocent suffer I’ve seen the faithful break And I wonder why the Father Lets the world give more than we can take I search the pages for an answer I pray until the words run dry But heaven doesn’t always open And I don’t know the reason why [Pre-Chorus] For now we see through cloudy glass A thousand questions drifting past I hold to what I cannot see And ask what You are making of me [Chorus] I’m trying to put the pieces together Trying to find my way through the storm Holding on when I can’t see the reason Trusting the One who knows what He’s forming Will time reveal what my heart was after? Will the truth come out when the shadows are gone? When every motive is laid before You Will I have loved You all along? I’m still searching, still believing Though the answers don’t come when I call I’m just a man in the middle of the puzzle Trying to trust the Author of it all [Verse 2] It’s easy to call the darkness light When it serves the things I want Easy to dress ambition up In the words of faith and love But You see beneath the surface Past the reasons I defend You know where my intentions start And where my excuses end I can fool the world with good intentions I can fool myself for years But the fire will test the building And the truth will outlast my fears [Pre-Chorus] Search me, God, and know my heart Show me where the shadows start If there’s a pride I can’t confess Break it down and leave what’s left [Chorus] I’m trying to put the pieces together Trying to find my way through the storm Holding on when I can’t see the reason Trusting the One who knows what He’s forming Will time reveal what my heart was after? Will the truth come out when the shadows are gone? When every motive is laid before You Will I have loved You all along? I’m still searching, still believing Though the answers don’t come when I call I’m just a man in the middle of the puzzle Trying to trust the Author of it all [Bridge - Quiet, Piano and Voice] What if I never know the reason? What if some wounds never heal? What if faith means walking forward When I cannot understand what’s real? I was never promised explanations I was never promised an easy road Just a cross to take up daily And a Savior who has borne my load Let the years expose my motives Let the trials reveal what’s true Let the things I thought were wisdom Fall away if they obscure You I don’t need to see the ending I don’t need to know it all If my life belongs to Jesus I can trust Him through the fall [Instrumental Break - Building Guitars and Drums] [Final Chorus - Powerful, Soaring Vocals] I’ll keep putting the pieces together I’ll keep walking through the storm Even when I can’t see the reason I’ll trust the Hands that shape what’s being formed Let time reveal what my heart was after Let the truth come out when the shadows are gone When every motive is laid before You Let my life show Whom I was leaning on I’m still searching, still believing Even when the answers don’t come when I call I’m just a man in the middle of the puzzle Trusting the Author of it all [Outro - Soft, Reflective] One day the glass will be clear One day I’ll understand Until that day, I’ll keep walking With my questions in Your hands The pieces may never fit The way I thought they should But You are God, and You are faithful Even when I don’t understand what’s good [Final Line - Whispered] Lord, let me be found faithful. [End]
