Like the divers of the deep waters of Belize
So are the believers in the Kingdom of God
Through the uncertainties in which they wade:
They remain brave and undismayed!
Their faith will not be dissuaded
For they serve the one who has conquered the grave
When asked how they do it?
They tell of the times they were brought to their knees
In a series of untimely disappointments
And seemingly closed doors
They tell of times when they began to lose grip… of perspective:
They could do all things through Christ who strengthened them,
He would never leave them or forsake them,
He would make all things work out for their good
They tell of such seasons of darkness and despair
Because through these seasons they learnt lessons in faith and hope
So now, they can take courage knowing that this too shall pass
Fellow brethren, if you find yourself in such a tumultuous season
Take courage
Don’t lose grip of perspective:
You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you,
He will never leave you or forsake you,
He will make all things work out for your good.
Take courage
And insist on singing songs that wash your souls in words of truth and freedom
It amazes me how worship truly beckons the spirit
When the mind is troubled, and the heart can find no solace
It is in worship that I find strength to fight the good fight
It is worship that I recall how light is this, my burden and plight
It is in worship that I recall that in Him I can quenchably delight
I wonder…will you remember Him… when the pressure mounts around you too…?
I wonder… will you be strong for Him? …Because He asks you to.
