When You Least Expect It

Hilary Weeks

It's been raining for days
With no sign of it letting up
And all I can think about
Is how much I miss the sun

The sound is almost hypnotizing
Pounding on the pavement
And drop by drop I forget
How good the sun feels on my face

And through the shadows
Beyond the clouds
A ray of light hits my window
I can't believe it
But I can see it
Right in front of my eyes

And that's when it happens
When you least expect it
When if feels like the storm will never end
That's when it happens
Light cuts through the darkness
And heaven surprises you
When you least expect it

I quit counting the hours
I've prayed for answers
I can't help wondering
How long will I have to wait?

And why is heaven silent
While I'm running out of words?
I keep on knocking
But nobody hears me
Standing at the door

And through the shadows
Beyond the clouds
Heaven sends the answer
I can't believe it
But I can feel it
Deep inside of my heart

And that's when it happens
When you least expect it
And you know God has heard every prayer
That's when it happens
Love breaks through the darkness
Heaven surprises you
When you least expect it

I can't believe it
But I can feel it
Deep inside of my heart

And that's when it happens
When you least expect it
And you know God has heard every prayer
That's when it happens
Love breaks through the darkness
And Heaven surprises you
When you least expect it
