Plans to Prosper

Verse 1

Twenty-Three years, didn't understand the gift
Until the year with her, my spirit spent forfeit.
Through Your mercy, brought me back in Your Name;
Your grace severed ties that should never have been made.
Returning to you, another year gone;
Through worldly eyes I'm still alone.
Why can't I see the plans you have for me?
Blinded by my desires, rather than seek higher.

Bridge 1

Learning to trust you with all of my heart;
I will use this gift to seek Your pleasure.

Chorus

You are the One my spirit seeks;
How can I be alone when I'm in You?
For you have plans to prosper me
You are my hope and my future.

Verse 2

Learning to seek you with all that I am,
Preparing my heart for one yet unknown.
Godly women around me; will she be the one?
Or could she be everything I've dreamed of?
Wounded heart opened, let her inside.
Maybe I was right, but you said, "It's not the time."
When will I learn that your thoughts are not my own?
Oh God, teach me to seek you, and you alone!

Bridge 2

I give you my doubts, my desires, my heart -
From your will may I never again depart.
