Blessings by Laura Story

Have you heard this song yet? I can't get enough of it!

We pray for blessings 
We pray for peace 

Comfort for family, protection while we sleep 

We pray for healing, for prosperity 

We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering 

All the while, You hear each spoken need 

Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things 

‘Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops 

What if Your healing comes through tears 

What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near 

What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise 

We pray for wisdom 

Your voice to hear 

We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near 

We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love 

As if every promise from Your Word is not enough 

All the while, You hear each desperate plea 

As long as we have faith to believe 

When friends betray us 

When darkness seems to win 

We know that pain reminds this heart 

That this is not our home 

What if my greatest disappointments 

Or the aching of this life 

Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy 

What if trials of this life 

The rain, the storms, the hardest nights 

Are your mercies in disguise

Thank you Lord for your blessings and your mercies, even when they hurt.
