Some say when one door closes one more opens
But sometimes a slamming door's just a slamming door
I don't know why some hearts just get broken
While others stay fulfilled and feel secure
But I know that I been told
That there's a God who's in control
And I don't need to understand His ways
That I should get down on my knees
And pray the Lord my soul to keep
Close my eyes and hang on to my faith
So I bow my head and wait for grace
Sometimes hard luck will lead to learning lessons
Sometimes you just learn you're not lucky and it's hard
Things like this will lead a soul to question
The One who holds the deck and deals the cards
Oh I shake my fist and questions go unanswered
Oh sometimes it's like they plague me like a cancer
My head and heart go round and round
On a faith and doubt filled battleground
Sometimes I lie there curled up in the darkness
Blocking out the world for a little while
In the blackened silence there's a certain softness
Where I can say my prayers and gently cry
'Cause I know that I been told
That there's a God who's in control
And I don't need to understand His ways
That I should get down on my knees
And pray the Lord my soul to keep
Close my eyes and hang on to my faith
I guess I should get down on my knees
And pray the Lord my soul to keep
Close my eyes and hang on to my faith
So I bow my head
And wait for grace
