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!
