Sickness must be present
For healing to take place
Lives must be broken
So they can be restored
We must stop looking at our hard times
Like they were dead-end roads
But avenues to prove that He is Lord

It didn't come to stay, it came to pass
The Lord will move that mountain if you'll ask
The trials that we see today won't last, no
It didn't come to stay, it came to pass

Oh, if I should live by sight
I would be beaten down
Because I can't see past these walls
Of circumstance, no
But faith will be my substance
And my hope is in the Lord
And He will turn my sorrow into dance
Oh, He will turn my sorrow into dance

It didn't come to stay, it came to pass
The Lord will move that mountain if you'll ask
The trials that we see today won't last
It didn't come to stay, it came to pass
'Cause weeping may endure for the night
Oh, but I'll find my joy tomorrow
Tomorrow

It didn't come to stay, it came to pass
The Lord will move that mountain if you'll ask
The trials that we see today won't last, oh, no
It didn't come to stay, it came to pass

We will be faithful
It didn't come to stay
No, it didn't come to stay
It came to pass
