Wilderness

Wilderness - O.C. Supertones

The rain falls

On the righteous

And the wicked

And mine is not to reason

Why this is

In this I rest

In this I find my refuge

That my thoughts

And ways are not His

I spend my life on looking

Up the answers

It's rare that

I can't find a reason why

But reasons fail

Children without mothers

His plan is

More than I can know

Have you ever held in doubt

What this life is all about

Have you questioned

All these things

That seem important to us

Do you really wanna know

Or are you a little scared

You're afraid that God

Is not exactly

What you'd have Him be

And what should I hold to

And what should I do

How do I know if

Anything's true

I'm somewhere in-between

Canaan and Egypt

A place called The Wilderness

I'm not one who

Always trusts their feelings

I don't believe in

What you'd call blind faith

But faith that you can do all

That you promised

And you said it all

Works for good

It's safe to say

I don't see the big picture

I can't see the forest

For the trees

And if five hundred lives

Were mine to get to know

You all could be

Spent on just this

Have you ever held in doubt

What this life is all about

Have you questioned

All these things

That seem important to us

Do you really wanna know

Or are you a little scared

You're afraid that

God is not exactly

What you'd have Him be

What should I hold to

And what should I do

How do I know

If anything's true

I'm somewhere in-between

Canaan and Egypt

A place called

The Wilderness

And God

Do You really understand

What it's like to be a man

Have You ever felt the weight

Of loving all

The things You hate

Have You struggled

Have You worried

How can You sympathize

I have spoken much too soon

Put my hand over my mouth

I can't contend with You

Your ways are so much higher

We pass through the fire

That Christ endured before us

When You were in The Wilderness
