I Say Amen

I Say Amen

I've learned to say Amen to God's plan

I've learned to rest in him right where I stand.

I've learned it's not me that creates change

But a sovereign God who rules all things

We're but mere men, trying to navigate

Our way in a world governed by hate.

As we debate politics and philosophy

The world's wisdom is fading and it's ideology

I've learned to Simply rest and say Amen to God

I've learned it's all foolishness in this path that I trod.

Saying amen to his plan in the Earth

And following His lead Putting him first

I've learned to say Amen as I seek his way

As I watch him reign and have his say

I've watched Him sit back as rulers take their place

And have watched him intervene with mercy and with Grace

Sometimes we wonder what's happened in this world

Everything is upside down Moral values have been hurled

But I just stand for my savior and say Amen to his way

As he leads me to where I'm supposed to be each day

Yes I've learned to say Amen to God above

To not go out on my own but rest in his love

And I don't get dismantled over all the evil I see

I just say Amen to my father who shapes every destiny.
