There's a promise in our sorrow
and a blessing when we sigh.
There's a light beyond the shadows
and a cleansing when we cry.
So when we are discouraged,
and face tremendous grief;
it is during those times of trouble,
that the heavens send relief.
With our heart in tune with Jesus,
our source of joy and peace,
be mindful of His promise,
that all suffering He would cease.
He's cried our tears of sadness;
He's felt our every pain,
He's walked our path before,
all glory to His name.
Just listen for the spirit,
as it whispers to be still,
for there is joy and comfort
beyond sad Calvary's hill.
So if the sky should darken
and if the earth should quake,
remember life has struggles
on the journey that we take.
The aftermath of sorrow
is beauty and pure light,
if we can fight the battle
and pray with soul and might.
He sent us rainbow colors
to follow cleansing rain,
He showed us there are miracles
that come with all the pain.
Seek forbearance in the hardships,
or when we fear or roam.
Cast your burdens on the Savior,
and He'll come and take us home.
For He is our great Redeemer
our only true best friend,
He promised he would never leave,
He'll guide us to the end.

Luke 12:27-32
27 Consider the lilies
how they grow: they toil not, they spin
not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon
in all his glory was not arrayed like one
of these.
28 If then God so clothe the grass, which
is to day in the field, and to morrow is
cast into the oven; how much more will he
clothe you, O ye of little faith?
29 And seek not ye what ye shall eat, or
what ye shall drink, neither be ye of
doubtful mind.
30 For all these things do the nations of
the world seek after: and your Father
knoweth that ye have need of these
things.
31 But rather seek ye the kingdom of God;
and all these things shall be added unto
you.
32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your
Father's good pleasure to give you the
kingdom. |
II Corinthians 4:8-10, 16-18
8 We are troubled on
every side, yet not distressed; we are
perplexed, but not in despair;
9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast
down, but not destroyed;
10 Always bearing about in the body the
dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life
also of Jesus might be made manifest in
our body.
16 For which cause we faint not; but
though our outward man perish, yet the
inward man is renewed day by day.
17 For our light affliction, which is but
for a moment, worketh for us a far more
exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18 While we look not at the things which
are seen, but at the things which are not
seen: for the things which are seen are
temporal; but the things which are not
seen are eternal.
