God Knew What We Needed

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some things are planted long before we know Seeds in the soil, waiting to grow From Head Start hallways to the church pew rows God had a plan already in His hands Two kids who fussed and couldn't get along Were learning every word to the same song [Chorus] God knew, oh God knew He was writing something beautiful and true Through every season, every twist and turn A love this deep you don't just find, you earn God knew, oh He knew [Verse 2] We walked through high school, friendnemies at best You headed off to college, I went west The Corps shaped me but heaven shaped the rest Then one sweet day I saw you standing there Kim, you had bloomed beyond compare I knew right then I'd meet you at the altar stairs [Chorus] God knew, oh God knew He was writing something beautiful and true Through every season, every twist and turn A love this deep you don't just find, you earn God knew, oh He knew [Bridge] Thirty years, two beautiful lives we raised Kim, look at the garden that we made Every joy, every tear has been worth the stay And I'd choose you again every single day [Verse 3] You wear your strength like Sunday morning light A mother's love that holds this family tight Your faith has been our compass through the night Kim, I'm still growing right beside you, dear And every morning that I wake up here I thank the Lord for every blessed year [Chorus] God knew, oh God knew He was writing something beautiful and true Through every season, every twist and turn A love this deep you don't just find, you earn God knew, oh He knew [Outro] Still growing with you, still grateful it's true God knew what He was doing when He gave me you
