[Verse 1]
G Am
If I didn’t know summer would I really know fall?
C D7
If I didn’t have the hard times would I know You at all?
G Am
If it didn’t get warmer would I even know it’s cold?
C D7
And if the pollen never landed how would the fruit grow?
[Chorus]
Em D G C
I know there’s a season for dryness, a season for growth
Em D G C
And there will be a season for fruit
Em D G C
I know every season has its purpose even when it doesn’t show
Em D G C
The tree can’t go up before it takes root
D C
There’s a season for gladness and a season to mourn
D C
There’s a season to feel nothing and wait on You Lord
D C
There’s a season for sowing and a season to reap
D
There’s a season where all is lost and I can only weep
Em D G C
But there’s no season that You’re not here
Em D G C
Mmmmm You’re always near
[Verse 2]
G Am
If I didn’t get pruned would I ever really grow?
C D7
And if I never got plucked would I ever make it home?
G Am
If I never got tested would I have any faith?
C D7
And if I had no faith the seed was thrown in vain
[Verse 3]
G Am
If I always saw the sun, guess I wouldn’t know the moon
C D7
And if I only knew December I’d miss the heat of June
G Am
If I never leave Egypt I’ll never see the land
C D7
And if I’m not in the wild I’m not led by Your hand
[Chorus 2]
Em D G C
I know there’s a season for dryness, a season for growth
Em D G C
And there will be a season for fruit
Em D G C
I know every season has its purpose even when it doesn’t show
Em D G C
The tree can’t go up before it takes root
D C
There’s a season for gladness and a season to mourn
D C
There’s a season to feel nothing and wait on You Lord
D C
There’s a season for sowing and a season to reap
D C
There’s a season where all is lost and I can only weep
D C
But there’s no season that You’re not here
D C
But there’s no season that You’re not here
D C D
There’s no season that You’re not here
[Chorus 3]
Em D G C
I know there’s a season for dryness, a season for growth
Em D G C
And there will be a season for fruit
Em D G C
I know every season has its purpose even when it doesn’t show
Em D G C
The tree can’t go up before it takes root
Em D
There’s a season for gladness and a season to mourn
G C
There’s a season to feel nothing and wait on You Lord
Em D
There’s a season for sowing and a season to reap
G C
There’s a season where all is lost and I can only weep
Em D G C
But there’s no season that You’re not here
Em D G C
Oh Lord, You’re always near

G Am
Sometimes the Farmer burns the field so that the crops can grow
C D7
Sometimes the thief will steal the fruit instead of grow his own
G Am
Sometimes wheat’s around the tears and you feel all alone
C D7
But the Father knows just where you are and He will bring you home
