PROVIDENCE
IT WAS A DARK AND RAINY DAY
AND I WAS FEELING LOW
AND THOUGH I DIDN'T TELL HIM
GOD SOMEHOW SEEMED TO KNOW
JUST WHAT I NEEDED SO I LOOKED OUTSIDE
HE HAD MADE A BEAUTIFUL RAINBOW
ITS COLORS WERE MAGNIFICENT
THAT ANYONE COULD SEE
BUT SOMEHOW I GOT THE FEELING
HE MADE IT JUST FOR ME
ANOTHER DAY I FELT SO SAD
ALL I COULD DO WAS CRY
THERE WAS SO MUCH I COULD BE DOING
BUT I HAD NO WILL TO TRY
THEN I LOOKED OUT MY WINDOW
AND SAW A BUTTERFLY
SO QUIET AND BEAUTIFUL IT WAS
THAT ANYONE COULD SEE
BUT WHEN I FELT HIS PRESENCE I KNEW
HE MADE IT JUST FOR ME
IF WE ARE FEELING OUT OF SORTS
AND BURDENED DOWN WITH CARE
GOD KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED
AND HE IS ALWAYS THERE
WHATEVER IS NEEDED TO CHEER US UP
THAT'S WHAT HE WILL DO
AND HE WON'T MIND IT IF YOU THINK
HE DID IT JUST FOR YOU
THIS IS THE WAY GOD LETS US KNOW
WE ARE SPECIAL IN HIS SIGHT
HE ALONE CAN TAKE WHAT'S WRONG
AND SOMEHOW MAKE IT RIGHT
FOR HE IS AN EVER LOVING GOD IT'S
TRUE
THAT'S WHY HE CREATED LOVE
JUST FOR ME AND YOU
