Through it All

There is a song called "Through it all," on a CD called "Hiding Place," by the group SELAH. Words and Music by Andrae Crouch.

Carson and I listen to this CD a couple times a week. I just love this CD. And this song. Please read the lyrics and think about what they have to say.

Verse 1
I've had many tears and sorrows,
I've had questions for tomorrow,
there's been times I didn't know right from wrong.
But in every situation,
God gave me blessed consulation,
that my trials come to only make me strong.

Chorus
Through it all,
through it all,
I've learned to trust in Jesus,
I've learned to trust in God.

Through it all,
through it all,
I've learned to depend upon His Word.

Verse 2
I've been to lots of places,
I've seen a lot of faces,
there's been times I felt so all alone.
But in my lonely hours,
yes, those precious lonely hours,
Jesus lets me know that I was His own

Chorus
Through it all,
through it all,
I've learned to trust in Jesus,
I've learned to trust in God.

Through it all,
through it all,
I've learned to depend upon His Word.

Verse 3
I thank God for the mountains,
and I thank Him for the valleys,
I thank Him for the storms He brought me through.
For if I'd never had a problem,
I wouldn't know God could solve them,
I'd never know what faith in God could do.


My favorite couple of lines are:
For if I'd never had a problem,
I wouldn't know God could solve them,
I'd never know what faith in God could do.

I know we are all going through our own mountains and valleys, but we have to remember the Lord does take care of us. He WILL get us through it! For if I'd never had a problem, I wouldn't know God could solve them, I'd never know what faith in God could do. God can solve them! We have to be able to let Him solve it His way and not our way...His way IS the better way. It brings tears to my eyes to read and reread those couple of lines. He can solve it! Whatever it is, He can.

"I thank you Jesus for taking care of each and everyone of us. Thank you for bringing our children home to us, thank you for providing for us, thank you for your new mercy's everyday! I thank you and praise you Jesus. In Jesus precious name, Amen."
