Difficulties

​​

I wish that I could take away

The problems that I face today

 

I wish that I could just erase

The difficulties that I face

 

And yet I know sometimes the fire

Is the thing that does inspire

 

My heart to cling to only You

Whose grace alone will see me through

 

So help me not to lose hope in

The grace that guides me to the end

 

The hope that never fails me

Of joy with You eternally

 

Work in me with Your great might

In ways that make the heavy, light

 

Problems cannot be wished away

But Your grace and mercy will guide my way

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases, his mercies never come to an end.”    Lamentations 3:22 (ESV)
