John Worsham: Music

• MP3 short clip, hi-fi play (broadband)
• MP3 short clip, lo-fi play (modem)

What I want and what I need are two very different things

And what the good Lord gives to me lies somewhere in between

I can pray all night and day for what I wish to be,

But when it comes to answered prayers, he knows what’s best for me.

 

 

Chorus:

He knows what’s best for me, better than I know myself

He knows what’s best for me, why should I listen to anyone else?

Someday still, I hope I will be the man that I should be

‘Till that time, I know that I’m gonna get what’s best for me.

 

 

Now I may wish for worldly things like a mansion on a hill,

Fancy cars and diamond rings, but is may not be his will.

If He decides I should reside on a boat out on the sea,

And be a fisher of men to wherever he sends, He knows what’s best for me.

(Chorus)
