It's Not for Me to Understand

WILLIE NELSON

5

I passed a home the other day

The yard was filled with kids at play

And on the sidewalk of this homeA little boy stood all alone

His smiling face was sweet and kind

But I could see the boy was blind

He listened to the children play

I bowed my head and there I prayed

Dear Lord above why must this be

And then these words came down to me

After all you′re just a man

Aand it's not for you to understand

It′s not for you to reason why

You too are blind without my eyes

So question not what I command

Cause it's not for you to understand

Now when I pray my prayer is one

I pray his will not mine be done

After all I'm just a man

And it′s not for me to understand
