| CLOUDS... |
Storm clouds may hover overhead Blocking out the strongest sun But of one thing you can be sure That when all is said and done The darkest and heaviest bank of clouds Will eventually dissipate Sooner or later the sun will shine All we need do is believe and just wait! Wear a big smile, keep spirits up high Let a strong faith foster new hope Solid trust in the Lord has always been The best possible way you can cope! As long as He's on the same side as you There's just no way you can lose! Even in the most forbidding gray cloud You'll find something that can be used! For inside each and every one God has hidden a special suprise Even the most awful misery and pain Could be the best blessing in disguise! An unexpected, from-out-of nowhere miracle That lights up the cold, darkest place Suddenly the sorrow, the tears and the loss Have vanished without even a trace! The wonderful plans God may have in store Are not for us to question or know Our job is only to love and believe In Him and to make sure it shows! Trusting that whatever He sends our way Will in the end always be for the best Great joy or deep sadness, illness or health Things like these and all of the rest... Knowing that even when all of the odds Against us form a towering stack... The troubles up ahead are never as great As the power of God at our backs So remember, amid life and all of its trials Complete with anguish, despair, stress and fuss Following God's will won't lead anywhere That His love and His grace won't sustain us!
