If I had not gone through my pain

I wouldn't know how completely He heals

If I hadn't cried those tears 

I wouldn't know He collects them in a bottle

If I hadn't had my heart broken

I wouldn't know how much He loves me

If I hadn't walked the hard roads

I wouldn't know He directs my paths

If I hadn't been in need

I wouldn't know how He provides

I wouldn't trade these lessons for an easier life. 

I have a life so free 

A life so full
