Intro

Verse 1

 There've been times when I thought my prayers didn't even reach the ceiling

 Of the room where I knelt to pray

 And a voice inside kept asking me did I think God was really listening

 To anything that I had to say

 But I just kept on praying and holding on by faith

 Knowing God is always in control

 And I waited like a rose bud in the garden

 For only God can unfold the rose

Chorus

 When God unfolds the rose He always gets it right

 When the petals are in place it's such a beautiful sight

 God knows when to hold on and the perfect time to let go

 So let God have His way and watch God unfold the rose

Verse 2

 There are trials and tribulations we must all go through

 When it comes to heartaches we've all had our share

 Oh but when times are the hardest we need to hold God to the promise

 Said He'd never give us more than we could bear

 So I'll just keep on praying and holding on by faith

 Knowing God is working all things for my good

 And I'll wait just like that rose bud in the garden

 For only God can unfold the rose

Chorus

 When God unfolds the rose He always gets in right

 When the petals are in place it's such a beautiful sight

 God knows when to hold on and the perfect time to let go

 So let God have His way and watch God unfold the rose

Ending

 God knows when to hold on and the perfect time to let go

 So let God have His way and watch God unfold the rose
