Do you think God keeps us from falling in love with the wrong ones
He was so tall, kinda sandy blonde
With a smile gentle warm as the rising sun
But I never told him how I felt
How my insides would churn and almost melt
And I wonder if God held my tongue 'cause he wasn't the one
He took the keys and
Closed that door
And I can't go that way no more
But lately I've been thankful for
Every blocked road and every closed door
Do you think God keeps us from reaching the tops of the wrong hills
I was burning for a life with the bright lights
Seeing city after city like a spinning wheel
But I stopped in my tracks overnight
Traded the roar of a crowd for a babies cry
And I wonder if God changed the course
Helped me to find the one
He made a way and
Closed that door
And I can't go that way no more
But lately I've been thankful for
Every blocked road and every closed door
With every closed door
Maybe there's a way that's
Higher than my ways (His ways are)
Higher than my ways (His ways are)
Higher than my ways (So lead on")
I'll go where he sends me, I won't come up empty
Higher than my ways (His ways are)
Higher than my ways (His ways are)
Higher than my ways (So lead on)
I'll go where he sends me, I won't come up empty if he
Closes that door
And I can't go that way no more
But lately I've been thankful for
But lately I've been thankful for
Yeah lately I've been thankful for
Every blocked road, and every closed door
