Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I may never stop asking why
But growing up I realize
The sting of life is not the enemy
Something better in my sights
Than the comfort I once idolized
Sometimes to heal you're gonna have to bleed

I used to push the hurt away
I didn't wanna feel my hard heart break
But now I'm caught in this bittersweet refrain
Thank God for the good pain

Ohh, I see my faith grow bigger now
Ohh, I got a story to sing about
Sometimes we break if that's what it takes
To make us whole again
I know it's grace that leads us to change
So I'm gonna thank my God for the good pain

Always found it so cliche
To find beauty in heartache
'Til it was all I had to carry me

Don't wanna push the hurt away
I wanna feel my hard heart break
So wrap me up in that bittersweet embrace
Thank God for the good pain

Ohh, I see my faith grow bigger now
Ohh, I got a story to sing about
Sometimes we break if that's what it takes
To make us whole again
I know it's grace that leads us to change
So I'm gonna thank my God for the good pain

No, I'm not ashamed to be broken
Cause deep down inside I know it
Every tear I cry, every sleepless night
Will someday turn into praise
Thank you God for the good pain

Ohh, I see my faith grow bigger now
Ohh, I got a story to sing about
Sometimes we break if that's what it takes
To make us whole again
I know it's grace that leads us to change
So I'm gonna thank my God for the good pain

So thank you God for the good pain
Thank you God for the good pain
