A View From the Other Side  g#

The clouds got so dark
The cold winds of trials began to blow
I thought to myself, that alone I'd have to stand
When I saw one set of foot prints in the sand
But God's purpose I now see, in his arms he carries me 
I'm dying to my own way of thinking
I know I'll rise in victory 

Chorus
Father not my will but thine be done
I want a view from the other side
So I can live this life through your eyes
You said all things works together for my good
I'm willing to trust you, to believe you
I'm laying down my all
Let thy will be done 2x

You have been my guide
Help me to follow you night and day
Teach me to trust you, Lord teach me to obey
Without you Lord I cannot find my way
Let me never ever stray, close to you I'll always stay
No longer Leaning on my understanding
Father I submit to you

Now I've come to know 
You'd never leave me nor forsake me
I'm being led by Your divine hand 
Through this ordained pathway you have planned
And In your sufferings we now have sweet fellowship 
Now that you to dwell in me
In your perfect will I always want to be

Monologue 
So many times our own desires 
Moves us away from God's perfect will for us 
But if we can just surrender to Him
Knowing that our lives are pre-planned
And his eternal purpose for our lives is greater 
than our own will
As the clay is in the potter's hands,
So are we in God's hand,
He has rights of ownership over us
We are his purchased possession
And through every test and trial 
He is to bringing us to perfection
Let us completely give up our own will and thinking
So we all can say...

Chorus
Father not our will but thine be done
We want a view from the other side
So We can live our lives through your eyes
You said all things works together for our good
We are willing to trust you, to believe you
We're laying down our all
Let thy will be done 2x
