THE BREAKING BEFORE THE BLESSING

God says go forth
have no fear 
I'll always for you
 be right there 
don't worry about the destination 
enjoy the journey you traverse 
the act of knowing, the act of going 
the act of arriving for better or worse 

don't bring God to your issues 
bring your issues to God 
for there'll be a breaking before the blessing
let the Lord do His part 

just don't be in a hurry to go 
where God wants you to be 
for He has to break you to build you 
so you can fulfill your destiny 
an internal transformation 
must take place 
to be a compliment 
to God's external grace 

don't bring God to your issues 
bring your issues to God 
for there be a breaking before the blessing, 
let the Lord do His part

leave your old self behind 
no longer stuck in the past 
now a new creation in Christ 
reformed and enhanced 
renewed, recalibrated and revised
the breaking before the blessing
the ultimate God prize 

with an adjusted mindset 
as you take this new journey in life 
now focused and assured
as you travel with the Lord Christ 

don't bring God to your issues 
bring your issues to God 
for there'll be a break-in before the blessing 
let the Lord do His part

yes, God understands all of our situations 
for God is the answer to life's complications 

don't bring God to your issues 
bring your issues to God 
for they'll be a breaking before the blessing 
let the Lord do His part 

just don't be in a hurry to go 
where God wants you to be
as He has to break you to build you 
so you can fulfill your destiny 

don't bring God to your issues 
Bring your issues to God 
For there'll be a break-in before the blessings 
Let the Lord do his part 

don't bring God to your issues 
bring your issues to God 
for they'll be a breaking before the blessings 
let the Lord do His part
