You know the game (lofi gospel)

Lyrics

There were nights I cried into the heavens, asking why You let my dreams slip through my hands. I saw doors closing in the darkness, You saw a road I could not understand. I wandered through a lonely desert, with a heart too tired to pray. And even when I could not see You, You never turned away. There were tears nobody witnessed, wounds I learned to hide. Promises that turned to ashes, dreams I had to leave behind. I thought I had been forgotten, I thought everything was gone. But even in the ruins, Your hand was leading me along. Now I can see what I couldn't see back then. You were writing something beautiful while I was breaking again. You were moving every piece when I couldn't understand. I was grieving what was leaving, while You were holding out Your hand. If I don't understand, I'll trust You. If I cannot see, I'll wait. You already know the road before me, so in Your hands I'll rest my faith. Then after all those winters, when I stopped asking why, a man came gently into my life, like morning after a long night. He did not come like a storm. He came like peace to my soul. And where there once were endless tears, God gave me somewhere to call home. He watches over my back when I cannot see what's coming. He stays when my strength is fading, and when I fall, he lifts me. And maybe every loss before him had a purpose I couldn't see. Maybe every road that broke beneath me was leading him to me. Because now I can look behind me without wishing to change the past. Every door that once closed on me was bringing me closer to this. Now I can see what I couldn't see back then. You were writing something beautiful while I was breaking again. You were moving every piece when I couldn't understand. I was grieving what was leaving, while You were holding out Your hand. If I don't understand, I'll trust You. If I cannot see, I'll wait. You already know the road before me, so in Your hands I'll rest my faith. And now, when my plans unravel and tomorrow fades from view, I don't question every silence. I simply look to heaven and remember You. You know the board. You know every move. You know my tomorrow before I ever do. I only see one piece falling. You see the whole game. I only know this moment. You know the ending by name. So move the pieces, God, even when I don't know why. Close the doors You need to close, lead me where You want me to arrive. I don't need to know the ending to keep walking through the night. I only need to know that You are by my side. And if I fall again, I know I won't fall alone. Your hands will hold me. Your love will lead me home. So I will trust You in the silence. I will trust You in the rain. Because I've learned that some goodbyes were blessings I couldn't name. Some endings were protection. Some tears became my song. And every road I thought was broken was leading me all along. I was the queen upon the board, but I never knew the game. I only saw the pieces move— You already knew the way. So if tomorrow changes everything, I will not be afraid. I may not know the next move... but God, You know the game.
