Can You Praise God When Things Go Wrong?
It's easy to praise
When you get that raise,
Can you praise when things go wrong?
You just lost your car
Your job is real far,
How will you sing a Praise song?
You never get sick
You praise God so quick,
Can you praise when things go wrong?
A lump you just found
Don't like how that sound,
Instead of praise, there's a frown.
Your son made the squad
Give Glory to God,
Can you praise when things go wrong?
No food for the kids
Husband on the skids,
All you can ask "God, how long?"
Your bills are all paid
So praise is relayed,
Can you praise when things go wrong?
You just got laid off
You're down with the cough,
This time your Faith is not strong.
For God's Creation
Christ brought Salvation,
We can praise when things go wrong,
It just comes to pass
Problems never last
We know to whom we belong.
