What The Hard Times Taught Me Lyrics


Jason Gray What The Hard Times Taught Me

[Verse 1]
Sometimes it feels like I learned to see in the dark
Like something came together when I fell apart
Getting up again when my knees were skinned
Showed me every end is where you hit restart

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish there was an easy way
But I found the light in darker days
Yeah

[Chorus]
I believe that I'm where you want me
I can see from the place you brought me
There's so much life in what the hard times taught me
Though it didn't go the way I planned it
I learned how to live open-handed
I came alive in what the hard times taught me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
Got me where you want me
Where you want me

[Verse 2]
Only the broken can tell you what healing is
When we're in need of forgiveness we learn to forgive
There's no rewind, just crooked lines
But Love is kind, and makes us whole again

[Pre-Chorus]
I wish there was an easy way
But I found the light in darker days
Yeah

[Chorus]
I believe that I'm where you want me
I can see from the place you brought me
There's so much life in what the hard times taught me
Though it didn't go the way I planned it
I learned how to live open-handed
I came alive in what the hard times taught me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
(Yeah) Where you want me
Got me where you want me

[Bridge]
I'm wiser, and I'm kinder
Than I was before
It broke me, but you woke me
And I thank You Lord
I thank You Lord

[Chorus]
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
Though it didn't go the way I planned (What the hard times taught me)
I learned how to live open-handed (Where you want me)
I came alive in what the hard times taught me (Where you want me, got me where you want me)

[Outro]
What the hard times taught me
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me (Where you want me)
Got me where you want me
What the hard times taught me (I'm where you want me)
Got me where you want me
Got me where you want me
Where you want me
