A Perfect Blessing

Elastic is the memory 

In the error of control  

Whatever you mind as is fleeting  

But a better door finds you today  

You didn't have to run  

Or fumble the keys  

You didn't have to knock again

Because all of that was paid for

It's what is behind all that 

Is what sought you out  

Begging you to listen  

But listening is broadened in silence  

And you were made to hear His voice  

The way He speaks to you  

He knows you when you are weak 

He knows you when you've lost everything  

You thought would make you happy  

For what He gives you  

No counterfeit comes close  

In a soft voice is hope  

In a contrite spirit

Is His life to mold

A perfect blessing
