Higher Ways

Artist: Steven Curtis Chapman
Song Title: Higher Ways





If I could only fly I'd go up and look down from the sky
So I could see the bigger picture
And Lord if I could sit with You at Your feet for an hour or two
I'm sure I'd ask too many questions

'Cause there's so much going on down here
That I must confess I just don't understand
I don't understand

But I have prayed
And at Your feet my whole life has been laid
So I won't worry I won't be afraid
'Cause my soul is resting on Your higher ways

So let the road ahead become unclear
For I am Yours so what have I to fear
If my soul is resting on Your higher ways

[CHORUS]
Your higher ways teach me to trust You
Your higher ways are not like mine
Your higher ways are the ways of the Father
Hiding His children in His love

So let it rain
And if my eyes grow dim with tears of pain
This hope I have will not be washed away
'Cause my soul is resting on Your higher ways

Someday I will fly and maybe then You will take me aside
And show me the bigger picture
But until I'm with You I'll be here with a heart that is true
And a soul that's resting on Your higher ways


I can't see the bigger picture.

"But I have prayed and at Your feet
my whole life has been laid
So I won't worry I won't be afraid
'Cause my soul is resting on Your higher ways

So let the road ahead become unclear
For I am Yours so what have I to fear
If my soul is resting on Your higher ways"

My trust is in You.

You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance."
