Tapestry

        G              A                   D 
The sheep, they do not know where they are going, 
            G             A                 D 
But they’re following the shepherd where he leads. 
    G               A              D 
The flower does not know how it is growing, 
        G                    A                D 
But the rain still falls and gives it what it needs. 


          G              A              D 
There’s a reason for the colors in your story, 
          G                  A             D 
There’s a picture though you cannot see it yet. 
      G            A            D 
Every thread has a purpose, and soon you’ll see 
     G            A       D 
Your part in this tapestry. 

 
             G         A          D 
And when you feel like nothing is connecting, 
           G                A                D 
And you’re searching for an answer you can’t find, 
     G                  A              D 
Just remember that each strand is intersecting 
    G               A          D 
To reveal what the Creator has designed. 
    G              A               D 
Any masterpiece is gonna take some time. 



          G              A              D 
There’s a reason for the colors in your story. 
          G                   A             D 
There’s a picture though, you cannot see it yet. 
        G                  A            D 
Sure, I believe that every thread has a purpose. 
       G                     A      D 
You’ll see your part in this tapestry. 


   G              D 
So lift your eyes above the hills, 
A 
Higher up and higher still. 
   G                  D 
If you could see from heaven’s view, 
A 
All the plans drawn out for you. 

  G             D 
Like the way we work the loom, 
A 
He knit you from inside the womb. 
G              D            A 
Every string is used in His design. 

  G            D 
I lift my eyes above the hills. 
A 
Though it’s not clear, I know I will 
G                   D 
Catch the view that heaven sees, 
     A 
And leap into His plans for me. 

     G            D 
This story goes — now you see — 
A 
I’m not there yet, but I believe.  
    G                    D 
The One who brought this world to life 
    A 
Has seen it all before its time. 

   G             D 
So ready or not, come what may, 
      A 
I’ll face whatever may come my way, 

       G            D             A 
’Cause everything is used in His design.

There’s a reason for the colors in my story. 
      G                 A                    D 
El Shaddai will be your guide when you can’t see. 
      G            A            D 
Every thread has a purpose, and I believe.
