SU and I stopped by Coffee Oasis last night to hear the old guy from last week. He wasn’t playing, another guy was. His backup singer sang two songs by herself during a brief break. After the first one, I looked at SU and said, well, she’s a Christian. The second song completely blew me away, probably because of the state of mind I’ve been in. Her name is Kristen Scanlon and it turns out she does have a website and ministry of her own. I purchased the CD just for the lyrics to that song. Here they are:
WHAT YOU SEE FROM THERE
Here I am on bended knee. Can You see the pain in the tears I weep?
My friends tell me this too shall pass, and it won’t be long before they hear me laugh.
And yet it feels like You’re not watching, and it seems You’ve been unfair.
I’ll try to remember that I can’t see what You see from there.
The hour is dark as I face tomorrow. I lay at Your feet my aching sorrow.
In my weakness I’ll hold on to my faith; looking to Your unfailing strength.
And yet it feels like You’re not watching, and it seems You’ve been unfair.
I’ll try to remember that I can’t see what You see from there.
As I face the trials of this life, I will rejoice in Your Name.
Knowing Your plan is perfect, and greater than I can conceive.
And my heart knows, that You’ve been watching, and it’s not that You’ve been unfair.
I’ll try to remember that I can’t see what You see from there.
I’ll try to remember one day I’ll see what You see from there.
