A FEW WORDS FROM JORDAN
Songs may be penned quickly, but it takes years for them to be truly written. Life. Death. Joy. Pain. Struggle. Hope. Defeat. It’s through these seasons that songs are put in us—they just happen to come out fast. This is one of those songs. It poured out quickly, but it took years to be birthed. And that’s often how God works. He’s patient. He moves slowly—at least by our standards. Then suddenly, it’s go time. I’ll never understand Him the way I want to, but I do know this: He’s intentional, He’s kind, and He doesn’t waste a thing.
“seasons” lyrics
Verse 1
I used to dream that
I could just speed it up
I’d beg and plead
And say that I'd had enough
I’ve filled this ground
With tears, my sweat,
and blood
And You’d say, "Just wait,
There’s good things yet to come”
Pre Chorus 1
If I could just go back
I’d tell myself
Chorus 1
Don’t get nervous
There’s something under the surface
It may look like it’s dying
But it’s about to start rising
And the winds are changing
There’s a reason it’s raining
Now, I know you can’t see it
But that’s the beauty of seasons
Verse 2
If I'd just known the things He had for me
Would be so much more than I could ever dream
I'd slow way down and take in everything
I'd tell myself
“There’s no need to get worried.
Enjoy the journey!”
Chorus 2
Don’t get nervous
There’s something under the surface
It may look like it’s dying
But it’s about to start rising
And the winds are changing
There’s a reason it’s raining
Now, I know you can’t see it
But that’s the beauty of seasons
Bridge 1
When the ground gets hardest
Call on the God of the Harvest
Put your worries in the rearview
Cause there’s about to be a breakthrough!
What I thought was wasted
Led me to an oasis
So, I’ll keep on dreaming
Cause He's the God of the Seasons!
Chorus 3
Don’t get nervous
There’s something under the surface
It may look like it’s dying
But it’s about to start rising
And the winds are changing
There’s a reason it’s raining
Now, I know you can’t see it
But that’s the beauty of seasons
Tag 1
He's the God of the seasons!
Where would I be if I just sped it up?
