From Psalm 25:4-5:  “Make me to know Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; for You I wait all day long.”

Darkness filled with stormy seas

Navigating all alone

Waiting and watching

Jesus witnesses man’s every groan

 

Better days surely coming

Spring forward, full of grace

Watching and hoping

Jesus shares righteous branch, now embrace

 

His way leads to higher ground

Bringing mercy’s salvation

Hoping and trusting

Jesus rebuilds faith’s new foundation

 

Moments of earnest prayer

Transforming grace taking flight

Trusting and praising

Jesus forgives with redemptive light

 

Faith nourished with comfort’s love

Raising Resurrection’s bridge

No longer waiting

Jesus offers way to heaven’s ridge

 

From 1 Thessalonians 5:9-10:  “For God has destined us not for wrath but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep we may live with Him.”
