Three months old, hospital bed
Doctor says, there’s not much chance
Mom breaks down, once again

And I don’t know, how I’m supposed

To see You standing here, somewhere in this mother’s tears
She cries because her nightmare’s coming true
Maybe my faith’s not that strong, Jesus tell me that I’m wrong
But there’s so much pain in this room, and I don’t see You

Fifteen years, man and wife
All it took was just one night
To break those vows, and change their lives
Now they wonder if this is goodbye

And I don’t know, how I’m supposed

To see You standing here, somewhere in these lover’s tears
Two broken hearts that don’t know what to do
Maybe my faith’s not that strong, Jesus tell me that I’m wrong
But there’s so much pain in this room, and I don’t see You

Sometimes I want to turn my back
Shake my fists and run so fast
From everything I ever have believed
But on the darkest days I won’t let go
It will still be well within my soul
Even when the answers don’t come easily
‘Cause You said You’d never leave

So I know You’re standing here
You’ve been crying these same tears
Yeah, You’ve been here all along
So give me strength to just hold on
Until I see You
Until I see You
Until I see You
Until I see You

Behind the Song:
"People going through hard times and heartbreak often ask in those situations, ‘Where is God?’ “See You” explores the weight of those questions. The lyrics find me wrestling between faith and doubt, not trying to answer any hard questions. Still, I know Christ is with us in our suffering. We may never know why we suffer, but we know it’s not because God doesn’t love us. One of my favorite pastor/authors Tim Keller says Christ’s death on the Cross proves He loves us, so we never have to doubt that. And He does promise to be with us in the darkest of nights." - Josh Wilson
