But He’ll give you what you need.

[jimness]

When you look over your life
Green meadows, sunshine and rain,
You can see His hand in it all
Through rainbows, tears and pain.
When storm clouds filled your sky
And His face you couldn’t see,
Faith always brought you through
And His rainbow celebrated the big “V”.
The storms don’t come from Him
But the shelter His love provides,
Is always there to see you through
When faith, hope and love abides.
But the Father is not some magic genie
Put there at your beck and call,
To fulfill all your foolish desires
Like shopping at some online mall.
His love is bigger than the sky
And since He sees everything it’s agreed,
He doesn’t always give you what you want
But He’ll give you what you need.
