Get Out of God's Way

I started a new job
I work the 12-8 night shift
I'm able to attend church every Sunday 
to get my spiritual lift
on that very job, I did pray
and then I proceeded to get out of God's way

I did not stress nor worry
I just waited for God to do His thing
not only did I get what I had prayed for
let me tell what else God did bring

the same bus that I take each day
to go back and forth
Is the very same bus that I take Sunday mornings
right up to the church's front porch

I asked the Lord for this job
and He blessed me exceedingly
and all that I can do is tell Him thanks 
for giving me this testimony

don't undermine those things
on which you have prayed
let go, let God
and then get out of His way
