Every Now And Again Lyrics - Singles - Watson Wayne

Wayne Watson 

It's good to be lonely every now and again 

To be parted from the ones you adore 

To sit at a table for two all alone 

And take a look at the world around you 

At people with no one to go home to 

Some with a place to belong 

Others consumed by their weakness 

And another when weak seems so strong 

Chorus 

Lord, let me be at peace wherever I am 

Satisfied with all I have--A faithful friend 

And know I am grateful 

"Cause if it makes me love you even more 

I know--I'm sure 

It's good to be lonely every now and again 

It's good to go down to defeat now and then 

To fail at some nobel pursuit 

To fall short of the prize 

And find in His eyes 

There's nothing your victory can do 

To secure higher favor 

He cannot love you more than now 

Winners and losers 

All are the same somehow 

Chorus 

And it's good to know sorrow 

To be closely acquainted with grief 

To be showered with tears 

No reason to cheer 

To find in Christ your only relief 

Chorus 

I'm alone a lot. One spring Saturday in a small-town "mom and 

pop" restaurant, I wasn't just alone, I was lonely. I sat and 

just watched. Families together, two elderly ladies out for 

lunch, a mother with two unhappy babies. Next time you go on a 

pity binge, go off and watch the world go by and count your 

blessings.
