I thought I did what's right.
I thought I had the answers.
I thought I chose the surest road,
But that road brought me here.
So I put up a fight,
And told You how to help me.
Now, just when I have given up,
The truth is coming clear.
You know better than I,
You know the way.
I've let go the need to know why,
For You know better than I.
If this has been a test,
I cannot see the reason.
But maybe knowing I don't know
Is part of getting through.
I try to do what's best,
And faith has made it easy,
To see the best thing I can do
Is put my trust in You.
For You know better than I,
You know the way.
I've let go the need the need to know why,
For You know better than I.
I saw one cloud
And thought it was the sky.
I saw a bird
And thought that I could follow.
But it was You
Who taught that bird to fly.
If I let You reach me,
Will You teach me?
For You know better than I,
You know the way.
I've let go the need to know why.
I'll take what answers You supply. . .
You know better than I.
