​

All Good (even when it isn't)

 

​

Sometimes it can feel like there is not much hope

As you swing in the knot at the end of your rope

​

When the mess is so big you don’t know where to start

And there is not much left that’s not falling apart

​

If ever you find you are hungry or tired

Or your license for patience is simply expired

​

Remember that feeling can change like the weather

But there is a hope that’s steadfast and forever

​

Hope for the days when the mountains look steep

Hope for the days when the valleys are deep

​

Hope for the moments you see no way through

Hope for a day when all things become new

​

This hope is Jesus, the Savior who came

To save those who love Him and trust in His name

​

He has promised to walk through each trial we face

And to lavish upon us His unfailing grace

​

There will be hard days, of this we are sure

But His joy is unshakeable, His love secure

​

There will be times we do not understand

But under it all, we are held in His hands

​

With Jesus as Master, as Savior, as Friend

We have a sure and a glorious end

​

Rest in His promises, steadfast and true

And hope evermore in His great love for you

​

“He will tend his flock like a shepherd;

he will gather the lambs in his arms;”  Isaiah 40:11
