PROMISES
By: Melissa Wren
Never alone am I
So great You are
Your love, unfailing
Not always giving me what I desire,
Only what I need most, your fire
Holding me close in Your
Promises…promises
My mind a battlefield
Exploding with the enemy’s lies
Carefully disguised
The truth waiting to be found
In the Bible, my solid ground
Obedience doesn’t equal
Instant deliverance
From the consequences
of the life I left behind
but blessings await
that You long for me to find.
When the aching in my body returns,
When the pain makes me weep because it burns
Your tears I feel
impressed upon my face
Cry with me is what you do
How you love me, unfailing and true.
Never alone am I
So great You are
Your love, unfailing
Come good times and heartbreaks
You understand my mistakes
Holding me close in Your
Promises…promises
Do you care if I print and hang at my desk?! This is so beautiful! I feel so spiritually drawn to you, and I am so glad I found your blog.
