Why Be Surprised

Is it easier to expect the worst
Than to look for a blessing
When it feels like a curse
Is it hard to hope when the waiting is long
Can you sing His praise when you hear no song
Yet there's still a spark like a mustard seed
Your mind wants to doubt
Your heart wants to believe
And before your eyes you can see the change
All you've dreamed about is working out
Yet it seems so strange

Well, why, why be surprised
When God has promised good things
To those He loves
Hе keeps His word to you
Tell me, why, why be surprisеd
Lift your dreams up from the dust
He's promised us
That dreams still come true
Why be surprised

Now the day has come, and the night has past
But you feel afraid that it's not gonna last
You don't want to lose everything you've found
So you hold too tight till your heart is bound
But a heart of trust is a heart that's free
As you learn to let go and begin to receive
Then the walls come down and assurance grows
You can't believe it's happening
But God inside you knows

So, why, why be surprised
When God has promised good things
To those He loves
He keeps His word to you
Tell me, why, why be surprised
Lift your dreams up from the dust
He's promised us
That dreams still come true

Believe it's true
Don't doubt His word to you
If it's true Your Father
Wants good things for you

Then why, why be surprised
When God has promised good things
To those He loves
He keeps His word to you
Tell me, why, why be surprised
Lift your dreams up from the dust
He's promised us
That dreams still come true

Tell me, why, why be surprised
When God has promised good things
To those He loves
He keeps His word to you
Tell me, why, why be surprised
Lift your dreams up from the dust
He's promised us
That dreams still come true
Dreams come true
Well, dreams come true
Why be surprised
