Alright?

A month back I was in a major funk about life, God's plan, the future- my "plan for life". After restless nights, endless prayers and journal entry's the gates opened and God began to slowly reveal himself to me. In the midst of that, I attended a service at Open Door. While I was there, they had a special guest for music, Elizabeth Hunnicutt. Below, is the song she sang for offering. I felt as if it was the prayer I had been praying for weeks. It was as if, God was telling me he had heard everything I had said, and He in fact would make it all alright.

I like the word 'alright' because it doesn't necessarily mean perfect or the way I intended it to be, but rather to me, it means- "rest in me, I will take care of you, everything will be okay"

Needless to say, I immediately downloaded the song to my ipod, and when I find the funk creeping in, I listen, sing and remember that He will make everything alright.

Is it alright to say that I can't see the hope from here?
Is it alright to say that I'm not content?
Is it alright to say that I'm not feeling anything?
Is it alright to say that I don't know where you went?

Would it be alright if we talked awhile?
'Cause its been so long and I can feel the night
Would you walk this road with a lonely soul?
'Cause I need you to make everything alright

Is it alright to say that I am struggling everyday?
Is it alright to say I'm not hearing you?
Is it alright to say that I don't want to go your way?
Is it alright to say that I don't know what to do?

Would it be alright if we talked awhile?
'Cause its been so long and I can feel the night
Would you walk this road with a lonely soul?
'Cause I need you to make everything alright
