Story Behind The Song
How unsearchable are His riches and His ways past finding out. Its good to know that God is so different from any other person we have to deal with on a daily basis. He's approachable at any time without fear of retribution for our inadequacies or outright failures. Like a loving father, though He corrects and disciplines, He is more than willing to forgive and pardon our human shortcomings. On our darkest days He is only a whisper away and more than willing to help us with the burdens of this life. By experience we know that He never promised a trouble-free life, but He did promise that He would be with us until the end of this age. His tender mercies are new every morning and the closer we get to Him the more perfected our lives become in anticipation of the day in which we will be like Him because we shall see Him just as He is.

Lyrics
How many times have I come to You with all my troubles and fears
When I don't have anywhere else to turn You're the only one who hears
There's never a hint that I'm bothering You with all of my petty affairs
I always feel I'm important to You in spite of my worries and cares
I'll never quite understand just why You love me the way that You do
No matter how often I stumble and fall You never say that we're through
And considering all of the blessings You give - there's only one thing I can say
It's because of Your love that my life keeps getting better and better (and better)
each day
The sun was hiding behind the clouds when I woke up today
But after I spent a moment with You the storm started rolling away
Then it wasn't long 'til Your rainbow of love spread across the clear blue sky
And I heard the hope that only You can give in the voice of Your tender reply
Now I'm not going to say that I haven't a care as long as I'm following You
If I told how the troubles surround me each day it couldn't be any more true
But even the burdens and troubles of life are rapidly drifting away
And the nearer I get to the end of all things - it keeps getting better each day
