Well blue skies and hillsides

feel so far away

And I wrote in my notebook

that I've seen better days

Than the ones as of late

I can't bear the weight

The rain won't stop pouring

out my window pane

And I haven't left my bedroom in 76 days

I wish something would change

Cause I'm losing faith

So I brought it up in a desperate prayer

Lord, why are you keeping me here?

Then He said to me,

Child I'm planting seeds

I'm a good God

and I have a good plan

So trust that I'm holding a watering can

And someday you'll see

That flowers grow in the valley

So whatever the reason

I'm barely getting by

I'll trust it's a season

knowing that you're by my side

Every step of the way

And I'll be okay

Cause I brought it up in a desperate prayer

Lord, why are you keeping me here?

Then He said to me

Child I'm planting seeds

I'm a good God and I have a good plan

So trust that I'm holding a watering can

And someday you'll see

That flowers grow in the valley

When I'm on the mountain

and looking down below

I'll see a valley of flowers

that needed time to grow

And I'll thank you for the rain

The hurt and days of pain

And I'll bring it up in a grateful prayer

Thank you Jesus for keeping me there

You know just what I need

And you've planted seeds

Cause you're a good God

with a real good plan

And you hold my world

And a watering can

So I can have peace

Cause flowers grow in the valley
