pale rider’s call - thank you for the hard times lyrics

[verse 1]
i lost the job of my dreams
i thought that was the end
had to sell all of my things
wondered how i’d start again
feeling sorry for myself
wondering why you’d let me down
but then a stranger in a p+wnshop
turned my whole viewpoint around

[verse 2]
he said, “i see the cross you wear
you know i haven’t prayed in years
i don’t think god cares
i don’t think he hears.”
we talked about our struggles faced
the nights we felt alone
but grace had met us in that place
and he found his way back home

[pre+chorus]
i thought i lost, but you had won
through my trials, your work was done

[chorus]
so thank you for the hard times, the nights so full of pain
thе doors that never openеd, the prayers that felt in vain
‘cause every scar proclaims a story of your love and grace
the world can see the joy you give me on my face
[verse 3]
took a fall, broke both my legs
the pain too much to bear
spent a few long months in bed
but you were working there
the nurse who wrapped my bandages
said, “your peace seems out of place.”
but by the time i left that room
she’d found your hope and grace

[pre+chorus]
i could’ve been buried, but i still breathe
even in sorrow, you’re working in me

[chorus]
so thank you for the hard times, the nights so full of pain
the doors that never opened, the prayers that felt in vain
‘cause every scar proclaims a story of your love and grace
the world can see the joy you give me on my face

[bridge]
if the fire never burned, how would i have been refined?
if i never wandered, how would i know i was blind?
if i’d never felt the sorrow, how would i understand?
if the road was always easy, i’d have walked right past your plan
[chorus]
so thank you for the hard times, the nights so full of pain
the doors that never opened, the prayers that felt in vain
‘cause every scar proclaims a story of your love and grace
the world can see the joy you give me on my face

[outro]
happiness is fleeting
anything can bring you happiness:
a new phone, a good movie, food
but joy… joy is permanent. it’s a state of mind
joy comes from god, and once you have it, it’s yours for life!
