It's Not for Me to Understand

I passed a home the other day

The yard was filled with kids at play

And on the sidewalk of this home

A little boy stood all alone

His smiling face was sweet and kind

But I could see the boy was blind

He listened to the children play

I bowed my head and there I prayed

Dear Lord above why must this be

And then these words came down to me

After all you're just a man

Aand it's not for you to understand

It's not for you to reason why

You too are blind without my eyes

So question not what I command

Cause it's not for you to understand



[ steel ]



Now when I pray my prayer is one

I pray his will not mine be done

After all I'm just a man

And it's not for me to understand
