Between the Prayer and the Answer

Friend, do you wonder what the Lord does While you're praying hard and still waiting? Has He forgotten what's going on? Does He know your poor heart is breaking? Oh, I've learned the truth And my life's the proof Yes, I know what God did for me I've been in your place Now through eyes of faith, I can see God's building bridges and tearing down walls Lifting His children whenever one falls He's turning rivers of tears back into laughter He's mending fences, He's changing minds I've seen Him do it time after time He's speaking peace to a storm because He's the master Yes, that's what God does between the prayer and the answer Don't be discouraged, God's on your side Though He may not come in a hurry Friend, He's on His way, and He'll get there in time And prove there's no reason to worry Oh, there's never been one dark moment when you haven't been there on His mind And I have no doubt, He's working it out and you'll find God's building bridges and tearing down walls Lifting His children whenever one falls He's turning rivers of tears back into laughter He's mending fences, He's changing minds I've seen Him do it time after time He's speaking peace to a storm because He's the master Oh, that's what God does between the prayer and the answer If you could see how He's working today You'd lift your head up and say God's building bridges and tearing down walls Lifting His children whenever one falls He's turning rivers of tears back into laughter He's mending fences, He's changing minds I've seen Him do it time after time He's speaking peace to a storm because He's the master Oh, that's what God does between the prayer and the answer Yes, that's what God does between the prayer and the answer
