Different Now

Lyrics:

Life is different now
Day by day as change sinks in
And I am learning how
To view this new perspective
As a lens to clarify
And a fire to refine
To trust your gentle Providence
When nothing else is clear

Every shuttered door
Every past regret I thought
would haunt me ever more
Now I see a glimpse of how
your hand prepared the way
That my feet could never stray
Fingerprints from heaven
Etched in grace upon my heart

Tears that fill my eyes
Welling with my sorrow,
And when joy is multiplied,
Ever will I marvel
At the seeds your mercy sows
And the garden where they grow
Tended by your children
In true fellowship and love

Let my heart be still
Teach me that though life may change
My Savior never will
Yesterday, today, and for
Forever He’s the same
I can call upon His name
Who ever intercedes for me
Whose blood alone can plead for me
Jesus, keep me near to Thee
Yes life, life looks different now
