Red Blanket (When Times Got Hard)
[Verse 1]
Sitting here
Don't know how I made it over
Wondering, wondering
Have I lost my way
Which road should I take
Is this my fate
[Pre-Chorus]
But you placed inside of me
A storm-kit that I've held on to
My own proverbial red blanket
And when it seems all hope was lost
[Chorus]
You gave me hope
Riches unspeakable
Love that's unstoppable
More than you'll ever know
You gave me Christ
Weapons with which to fight
You taught me sacrifice
Love that will never die
And when times got hard
You taught me how to worship God
Whеn times got hard
You taught me how to worship God
[Verse 2]
Looking back
Thinking of all the stuff I'vе been through
Pondering what could have been
But I've learned along the way
That through the storm and in the famine
I can't lose my faith
And I'll give God praise
[Pre-Chorus]
But you placed inside of me
A storm-kit that I've held on to
My own proverbial red blanket
And when it seems all hope was lost
[Chorus]
You gave me hope
Riches unspeakable
Love that's unstoppable
More than you'll ever know
You gave me Christ
Weapons with which to fight
You taught me sacrifice
Love that will never die
When times got hard
You taught me how to worship God
When times got hard
You taught me how to worship God
You gave me hope
Riches unspeakable
Love that's unstoppable
More than you'll ever know
You gave me Christ
Weapons with which to fight
You taught me sacrifice
Love that will never die
When times got hard
You taught me how to worship God
I know when times get hard
That I can get on my knees
That I can look to you Lord
Oh, I worship God
