It Wasn't For Nothing
I see you running in place
A desperate getaway
Another sunrise
Another sunset
Another long day
It's all the same
Remember those tears you cried
I counted them every night
Losing your sleep
Losing your peace
Might feel lost
But not on me
Look at me, lean in close
Child I need you to know
It wasn't for nothing
The pain and the waiting
I heard when you called me
I promise I'm using
The hurt and the heartache
For who you're becoming
So you can look back and say
It wasn't for nothing
Have you been losing sight
Fear is running 'round your mind
Chasing you down
Feeding you lies
Telling you I'm not on your side
But don't you give up on me
I'm doing things you can't see
Healing your heart
Building your faith
Restoring your hope
For greater things
When people see you now
They're gonna know just how
It wasn't for nothing
The pain and the waiting
I heard when you called me
I promise I'm using
The hurt and the heartache
For who you're becoming
So you can look back and say
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
Someone will need to know
Your story down the road
So you look at them and say
It wasn't for nothing
The pain and the waiting
God heard when you called him
Just know that he's using
The hurt and the heartache
For who you're becoming
So you can look back and say
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
A desperate getaway
Another sunrise
Another sunset
Another long day
It's all the same
Remember those tears you cried
I counted them every night
Losing your sleep
Losing your peace
Might feel lost
But not on me
Look at me, lean in close
Child I need you to know
It wasn't for nothing
The pain and the waiting
I heard when you called me
I promise I'm using
The hurt and the heartache
For who you're becoming
So you can look back and say
It wasn't for nothing
Have you been losing sight
Fear is running 'round your mind
Chasing you down
Feeding you lies
Telling you I'm not on your side
But don't you give up on me
I'm doing things you can't see
Healing your heart
Building your faith
Restoring your hope
For greater things
When people see you now
They're gonna know just how
It wasn't for nothing
The pain and the waiting
I heard when you called me
I promise I'm using
The hurt and the heartache
For who you're becoming
So you can look back and say
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
Someone will need to know
Your story down the road
So you look at them and say
It wasn't for nothing
The pain and the waiting
God heard when you called him
Just know that he's using
The hurt and the heartache
For who you're becoming
So you can look back and say
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
It wasn't for nothing
