doxology and dreams in the dark
When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
– Job 30:26
Smack dab in the middle of the fight
While I waited for right
my day turned to night
I thought I was fine
the good I would find
then early one morning I found I was blind
I lay on the ground
this dark hell I found
fluttering wings the only sound
I drank this dark brew
no way out but through
this darkness just grew and grew
Overtaking me, Helpless I turned
My hope was all burned
I could not choose what I thought I had earned
I lay in Your hand
in Your arc I did land
trusting the truth I had already found
Watching life pass
going ever so fast
oh how long will this dark, dark night last?
In spite of the fear
I am still here
I give thanks even through tears
I trust in Your plan
My life is just sand
I am a follower and not a just fan
and if I should die
The truth does not lie
The sun will still be here when I say goodbye
I trust in the way
I open and say
Come open the door today
So light come and hold me
Love come, grow boldly
Till every bush, and bud, flames holy
🌙
