I enjoyed this song “Dawn” by Rebecca St James and brother, Luke Smallbone (from For King & Country). The line “Redeem this winter for your good” sticks with me – an assurance that, yes, God’s paths and seasons are not usually the ones we would choose. . . BUT he holds them and uses them for his purposes in his world, through us. Blessings!
“God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.” (James 1:12)
Lord, I’m so tired in this fight Tired of waking up with no end in sight I feel I’ve got so little left I know that I’ve come to the end of myself Help me hold on Cling to You ’til I see the sun
Held by Your love, I sing alleluia You’re lifting my heart as I lift my hands Safe in Your love, I sing alleluia You’re healing my heart as I lift my hands
Water the garden of my life With every sorrow, every tear that I’ve cried Redeem this winter for Your good Lord, show Your power as only You could
Help me hold on I’ll cling to You ’til I see the sun, oh-oh
Held by Your love, I sing alleluia You’re lifting my heart as I lift my hands Safe in Your love, I sing alleluia You’re healing my heart as I lift my hands
Even in the darkness, even when it’s hardest You are faithful and You bring the dawn On every mountain, I’ll sing it even louder You are faithful and You bring the dawn
