Oh Great Mystery Lyrics | John Lucas

My heart has known the winters
And my feet have known the snow
But mine eyes have seen the glory
Of a seed begin to grow
There is a time to uproot, darling
But most days just hold on tight
For there’s a time for darkness, honey
But dawn will always beat the night
Sometimes death will come calling
When you’ve been good and warned
And other times its cold hands will cradle
Dreams yet to be born
There is a time to dance on sorrow
And a time to kiss her cheek
There is a time to mourn in silence
But justice aches to hear you speak
And I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story
But I have found the one who gives me rest
And I will make my bed in his promises
For he holds true when nothing’s left
When nothing’s left
There is a time when laughter will echo
Through your halls of peace
But war is known to change your locks
And carry off the family keys
There is a time for healing and pain
A time for drought and a time for rain
There is a time for everything
Until we crown the risen king
Until we crown the risen king
And I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story
But I have found the one who gives me rest
And I will make my bed in his promises
For he holds true when nothing’s left
When nothing’s left
So crown him in your mourning
And crown him in your laughter
And crown him when it all turns dark
Crown him when you bury
And crown him when you marry
And crown him when your faith finds a spark
Crown him for he’s faithful
And crown him for he’s worthy
And crown him for he is good
Crown him for his promises
Cut through the blindness
Of children that have barely understood
The beauty that has come
And the beauty yet to come
And the beauty that is yours and that is mine
And that death produces life
And that we are made alive
By the king who paints beauty with time
By the king who paints beauty with time
By the king who paints beauty with time
And I don’t know the end, or tomorrow’s story
But I have found the one who gives me rest
And I will make my bed in his promises
For he holds true when nothing’s left
When nothing’s left
