I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget If you ask the lilies or the sparrows If they doubt who watched over them I bet they cry out without hesitation, "Jireh comes through time and time again." I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget If you as the rocks why they are singing Or why they rumble in a mighty roar It's in the very fabric of their being To lead us all in worshiping the Lord I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget If you as they mountains why they're moving Why seas are calm and storm winds cease to blow You need not look for greater, grander reason Thank simply that their Maker told them so I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget How often I forget. |b.g.s|

The Secret of Contentment
I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget If you ask the lilies or the sparrows If they doubt who watched over them I bet they cry out without hesitation, "Jireh comes through time and time again." I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget If you as the rocks why they are singing Or why they rumble in a mighty roar It's in the very fabric of their being To lead us all in worshiping the Lord I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget If you as they mountains why they're moving Why seas are calm and storm winds cease to blow You need not look for greater, grander reason Thank simply that their Maker told them so I have learned the secret of contentment Is to breathe You out and breathe You in again There's nowhere I can go outside Your presence Forgive me for how often I forget How often I forget. |b.g.s|
