Lyrics

She pulled her daughter close that night
Brushed the hair back from her eyes
The old house settled soft and quiet
But she knew the storms would rise
So she whispered words she always said
The ones that echoed through that home
Before you face what's coming, child
Hold this truth I've come to know

In the joy and in the sorrow
In the calm and in the storm
God loves you deeper than you can know
He has a plan for you, though you may not see the road
You can always trust Him
This I know

Her daddy sat beside his girl
And took her small hand in his own
Said, "Roads will bend and bridges burn
Plans you made will come undone
But every twist and every turn
Still runs through the Father's hands
These are words my daddy gave me
When I couldn't see God's plan

In the joy and in the sorrow
In the calm and in the storm
God loves you deeper than you can know
He has a plan for you, though you may not see the road
You can always trust Him
This I know

They'd said these words so many times
At sunrise and the end of the day
On every road they walked with her
Until her own child heard her say

In the joy and in the sorrow
In the calm and in the storm
God loves you deeper than you can know
He has a plan for you, though you may not see the road
You can always trust Him
This I know

This I know
This I know
