David Jayne - Song of Job Lyrics

You called me faithful
A servant of Yours
You thought me able
To take on this storm

You blessed me abundant
To take it away
Servants come running
To tell me today

You call me blameless
I'm not sure that's true
But one thing I know is
To not question You

All that I earned and all my acclaim
All of my hours through all of my days
It's all so trivial the only pursuit
Worth anyone's time for their life should be You
The same God who gives He can take it away
Though he may slay me I still give Him praise
All that I know in a second can change
But when things come and go
With me He'll remain

All that I had
And everything I knew
Gone in a moment
But my children too

I don't understand but
I still had my health
The next thing I knew
I had that stripped as well

My friends point their fingers
The fault they say is mine
Even my wife
Says to curse You and die

All that I earned and all my acclaim
All of my hours through all of my days
It's all so trivial the only pursuit
Worth anyone's time for their life should be You
The same God who gives He can take it away
Though he may slay me I still give Him praise
All that I know in a second can change
But when things come and go
With me He'll remain

God You are Lord of all
Giver of everything
It's You who are good
And it's me who should give You praise
You are the Lord
In Your footsteps I'm following
It's You who restores
I'm just patient in suffering

God You are Lord of all
Giver of everything
It's You who are good
And it's me who should give You praise
You are the Lord
In Your footsteps I'm following
It's You who restores
I'm just patient in suffering

All that I earned and all my acclaim
All of my hours through all of my days
It's all so trivial the only pursuit
Worth anyone's time for their life should be You
The same God who gives He can take it away
Though he may slay me I still give Him praise
All that I know in a second can change
But when things come and go
With me He'll remain
