Until I learned to trust,
I never learned to pray;
I never learned to fully trust
'Till sorrows came my way.
Until I felt my weakness,
His strength I never knew—
Nor dreamed 'till I was stricken
That He would see me through.
Who deepest drinks of sorrow,
Drinks deepest, too, of grace;
He sends the storm, so He Himself
Can be our hiding place.
His heart that seeks our highest good,
Knows well when things annoy;
We would not long for heaven
If earth held only joy.
The God of my rock; in Him will I trust: He is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my Saviour; Thou savest me from violence. 2 Samuel 22:3
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:31
Thou art my hiding place; Thou shalt preserve me from trouble; Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah. Psalm 32:7
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18
Lord GOD, i love you.
