Who, Oh Lord, can predict your works?
Who in the world can call all your shots?
Can we really believe unlimited praise to your name,
until we see that you've come through for us time and again?

Even though I'm down, you think so highly of me.
Even when I want to curse, you show me your mercy,
the very personable qualities of you.

You show me what's funny,
You show me what's beautiful,
You show me what brings you joy.

So I praise your name, and I praise it again!
Praise Our Lord, He's On Our Side!
I'll go back to where I did not want to be,
but this time the Joy of The Lord is in me.
I will certainly not perish, but I will succeed
and live as a testimony to your grace.
