A Greater Yes

It starts with a desire, planted deep within your heart
 You pray in faith, and wait for God to move
 Time passes and you wonder
 Did He hear me when I called?
 Should I even have prayed that prayer at all?
 You never pray a prayer, your Father will not answer
 He can't ignore His child's earnest request
 While you're waiting and believing
 For what you thought was best
 Trust God if He says no... You're still blessed
 There must be a greater yes
 There comes a time when child-like faith
 Must graduate to trust
 Trials come and you're convinced you're on your own
 But the teacher's often silent
 While you're in the hardest test
 But He'll answer when it's time with what is best
 You never pray a prayer, your Father will not answer
 He can't ignore His child's earnest request
 While you're waiting and believing
 For what you thought was best
 Trust God if He says no... You're still blessed
 There must be a greater yes
 Sometimes God will answer – just like we prayed
 Then other times what's on His mind
 Is a better plan, a another way, a greater yes
 You never pray a prayer, your Father will not answer
 He can't ignore His child's earnest request
 While you're waiting and believing
 For what you thought was best
 Trust God if He says no... You're still blessed
 There must be a greater yes
