We all journey though many seasons
Where the weather may be rough;
When the wind and waves will stir our mind;
Where we’ve simply had enough!
And confusion may be present
In the circumstances we are in,
Where hope may be diminished
And there’s great sadness from within.
Perhaps our shoulders feel the burden
Like a heavy blanket in our midst,
When the pressure it amounts
With our comprehensive list.
And the reality is this:
That we may have all experienced,
Many moments filled with problems
Where the burden is immense.
But in these moments of our darkness
There’s a ray of hope indeed,
That situations will get better
When to the voice of God we heed.
He has promised to not leave us
And will not forsake our soul,
Since His promises are steadfast
When His word in us unfolds.
There’s a season for everything
And although our prayers may not be answered,
If it’s in God’s will and in His timing
Our petitions will be heard.
Never give up hope
Because the sun is always there,
And will spring forth through our clouds
To wipe away despair.
As we come to the Lord for mercy
He will wipe away our sins,
And forgive and heal our land
As we’re washed and cleansed within.
