Thinking of... Clinging to... the words of this old, old song ~

~ It was one of my favorites, way back when, when I was in high school. Today it seems so totally appropriate for such a time as this, as well as for an "I'm-confident-its-coming" moment when I believe I will say with all my heart that I'm "So glad" for the current events in our lives.

So Glad
(Amy Grant)

I had laid some mighty plans
Thought I held them in my hands
Then my world began to crumble all away
I tried to build it back again
I couldn't bear to see it end
How it hurt to know, you wanted it that way

And I'm so glad
Glad to find the reason
That I'm happy-sad
That you've torn it all away
And I'm so glad
Though it hurts to know
I'm leaving
Everything I ever thought that I would be
Once I held it in my hand
It was a kingdom made of sand
But now, you've blown it all away
I can't believe that I can say that I'm glad

Long before my plans were made
I know a master plan was laid
With a power that superseded my control
And if that truth could pierce my heart
I wouldn't wander from the start
Trying desperately to make it on my own

And I'm so glad
Glad to find the reason
That I'm happy-sad
That you've torn it all away
And I'm so glad
Though it hurts to know
I'm leaving
Everything I ever thought that I would be
Once I held it in my hand
It was a kingdom made of sand
But now, you've blown it all away
I can't believe that I can say that I'm glad
