Track 2 — You Were Working All Along Verse 1 There were days I thought You'd left me When the road became unclear I was looking for an answer While You were already near I couldn't see beyond the moment I couldn't understand the pain But the hands I thought were absent Were still guiding me each day Pre-Chorus What I called a closed door You were leading me away What I called a wasted season You were using every day Chorus You were working all along Even when I couldn't see You were writing through the waiting Something beautiful in me You were working all along Through the places I had feared Every time I thought You'd left me You were closer than I knew You were working all along You were working all along Verse 2 There were things I wanted badly That You never gave to me At the time I couldn't understand it Now I'm grateful I can see Some roads would have destroyed me Some doors were not for me And the things I called a setback Were becoming what I needed Pre-Chorus What I thought was only loss You were turning into grace What I thought would end my story You were using to reshape Chorus You were working all along Even when I couldn't see You were writing through the waiting Something beautiful in me You were working all along Through the places I had feared Every time I thought You'd left me You were closer than I knew You were working all along You were working all along Bridge Now I don't need every answer I don't need to know the why I've seen enough of Your faithfulness To trust You with my life If another season finds me And I cannot see the way I'll remember what You've taught me You are working even then Final Chorus You were working all along Even when I couldn't see You were writing through the waiting Something beautiful in me You were working all along Through the places I had feared Every time I thought You'd left me You were closer than I knew And if I cannot see tomorrow I will still believe somehow The God who carried me before Is working even now You were working all along You are working even now Outro Even now... You're working... Even now... You're here.
