Above The Storm

Like an eagle,

I am rising above the storm,

My youth is being renewed

'Cause I'm shedding old feathers for new ones.

I am pressed but not crushed,

Persecuted but not abandoned

Struck down but not destroyed.

I am sure that now it will be said of me,

"See what Yahweh has done."

Out of Brokenness

Out of brokenness, He brings forth loveliness;
Out of bitterness, sweetness;
Out of nothingness, something beautiful;
Out of the valley, streams of healing waters;
Out of ignobility, aristocracy;
Out of a sow's ear, a silk purse;
Out of tatteredness, wholesomeness;
Out of chaos, orderliness;
Out of confusion, clarity;
Out of a pile of mess, a message.
Only my Lord and Friend can do that,
For He works all things together for good for everyone who loves Him.
