We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
G/B        C       D                   Em
All the while, You hear each spoken need

Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things

What if Your healing comes through tears?

What if the thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near?
Am      G/B             C                    
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise?

C    D        Em
We pray for wisdom
C      D        Bm
Your voice to hear
C    D     Em            F                  C
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
C    D          Em
We doubt Your goodness
C    D          Bm   
We doubt Your love
C       D     Em                D
As if every promise from Your word is not enough
G/B       C          D                    Em
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
    Am                   G/B       Dsus - D
And long that we’d have faith to believe
                      G
‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops?
               D/F#
What if Your healing comes through tears?
              Em                                   C

Am            G/B           C              D             C - G
And what if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise?
Am              G/B
When friends betray us
C             D                           
When darkness seems to win we know
Am          G/B                  C
The pain reminds this heart that this is not
D                 Am  Asus4-G  D  C  D  Bm
This is not our home
               C  D  Em   F  C   Dsus-D
It’s not our home
                      G
‘Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops?
               D/F#
What if Your healing comes through tears?
                  Em                                   C
And what if the thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You’re near?
              G
What if my greatest disappointments
       D/F#
Or the aching of this life
          Em                                C
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can’t satisfy?
Am        G/B            C                    D
What if trials of this life, the rain, the storms, the hardest nights
C          D/F#
Are Your mercies in disguise?
