From Doubt to Grace

From Doubt to Grace
(John 20:24-28)

Walking down the city streets - Whispering your name.
Knowing with every step - Nothing will ever be the same.
I can still hear their cries - Ringing in my ears.
Shouts of Hosannah & Glory - Filled with joy and cheer
(Ch)
Hosanna! Glory to the King of Kings.
Hosanna! Highest praise we now bring.
Hosanna! We lift you up in our praise.
Hosanna! Our hands and hearts in joy we raise!

The wind that blows onto my face - and the rustles in the palms.
As the leaves clap overhead - I find I’m not so calm.
How could you ever - let them take you away?
How could I have ever believed - that you would always stay?

(The same ones that sang - Ch:)

Now - the rest all say you’re here.
Inside I want to believe - but my desire is drowned by fear.
The doubt I feel - Is tearing me apart.
I wonder if there’s any life left - inside this broken heart.

(Memories mock me singing - Ch: )

Now I walk - to that old familiar place...
Where I once found healing - just by looking at your face.
Where I once dared to hope - it was so easy to receive.
I go to meet you - God, Ghost or dead man... I want to believe.

(Their cries drive me on - Ch:)
---
“MY LORD AND MY GOD!” - It’s really you!
All that you ever told me - is completely true!
I feel so alive - as I touch your hands, you erase my doubt and fear
Shouts of Hosanna & Glory - Fill my heart with cheer!

(My heart keeps singing - Ch: )
Walking down the city streets - Whispering your name.
Knowing with every step - Nothing will ever be the same.
I can still hear their cries - Ringing in my ears.
Shouts of Hosanna & Glory - Filled with joy and cheer

Doubt can be so hard to bear... but God meets us with Grace! :).
