Believin Stephen - His Purpose Is Gracious ft. Timothy Brindle [lyrics in the description]

Lyrics: His Purpose is Gracious featuring timothy brindle for The Suffering Servant album (based on James 5:10-11) First Verse- Stephen Read John 9 a man was born blind Whose fault was it? They asked the Lord “Why?” (John 9:2) Did his parents sin or was it this guy? (John 9:2) It was neither, but in His time (John 9:3) God would heal him and let His works shine (John 9:3) Christ let him see with transformed eyes Christ spit, made mud with the saliva (John 9:6) He gave him sight; see the love of the Messiah (John 9:7) The Pharisees doubted and hated with madness (John 9:16) Claimed Christ’s a sinner, who’s breaking the Sabbath (John 9:16) “How were you healed?” they asked doubtfully (John 9:26) He said, “I know I was blind but now I see (John 9:25) And now believe in the Son of Man (John 9:38) He healed me with His loving hand” There’s no mention of specific sin But God’s plans make sense when we get to the end!! Second Verse by timothy brindle In John 11 Jesus knows that Lazarus is dying but does not prevent it (John 11:6) Martha and Mary askin’ of the Christ “Heal our brother whom you love spare Lazarus’ life!” (John 11:3) So perhaps you’re asking “why” and you’re buggin’ How He could let him die if He loved him?! (John 11:3) This is seeming absurd Jesus surely could heal him by just speaking a word (Matt. 8:8) It’s four days later He’s at his tomb where they’re cryin (John 11:17) “Lord why not heal if you knew he was dyin?” (John 11:21; John 11:32) Then Jesus wept (John 11:35) except he knew this illness did not lead to death (John 11:4) He said, “It’s for the glory of God” (John 11:4) So people could see his power and adore Him with glory and awe (John 11:4, 40, 41) So—because He loved him, He allowed this mess (John 11:5) To show His power to pull him out of death And that His word has such force to give (John 5:21, 25-26) Life to a corpse when He said, “Come forth and live!!” (John 11:43) He raised Lazarus with His hollerin’ call To show He’s stronger than all, the results of the fall (Acts 2:24b, Rev. 21:5) And that death is just sleep to Him (John 11:11-13) No matter how deep in sin or the big the beast within (Matt. 19: 25-26!) If you see your mess, there is no better blessing (2 Cor. 12:9-10) When you bring it to Him who Is the resurrection!! (John 11:25) Third Verse by Stephen You heard of Job? By faith he was blameless (Job 1:1) Acquainted with pain, the pages explain this (Job 30:16) But Satan needed God’s permission (Job 1:6-12) To afflict Job with hard affliction (Job 1:6-12) Killed his sons and daughters, sheep and his cattle (Job 1:14-18) If these ain’t enough reasons to rattle Imagine painful sores from head to toe (Job 2:7-8) Once blessed with dough, winds wrecked his home (Job 1:19) His wife told him, “Curse God and die!!” (Job 2:9) But Job refused, he spurned awful pride He said, “If we’re God’s people Shall we receive good from God and not evil?” (Job 2:10) Still it felt like prison…..Alcatraz Friends accused him of sinni
