Sometimes
(~My Utmost For His Highest, the white CD~)

These are the places I was so sure I'd find Him...
I've looked in the pages, and I've looked down on my knees...
I've lifted my eyes in expectation
to see the sun still refusing to shine...

But sometimes He comes in the clouds
And sometimes His face cannot be found
Sometimes the sky is dark and gray
But some things can only be known
Sometimes our faith can only grow
And we can't see, so sometimes
He comes in the clouds...

Sometimes I see me, a sailor out on the ocean
So brave and so sure, as long as the skies are clear
But when the clouds start to gather,
I watch my faith turn to fear....

But sometimes He comes in the clouds
And sometimes His face cannot be found
Sometimes the sky is dark and gray
But some things can only be known
Sometimes our faith can only grow
And we can't see, so sometimes
He comes in the rain...
and we question the pain,
and wonder why God can see so far away
the time He'll show us, He was right there with us

But sometimes He comes in the clouds
And sometimes His face cannot be found
Sometimes the sky is dark and gray
But some things can only be known
Sometimes our faith can only grow
And we can't see, so sometimes

He... comes in the clouds... (repeat)
