God Is In Control - 1
When life brings you to a place
Where pain and sorrow you must face
Listen to the wind and rain, leave a smile
From the stardust thoughts that whisper
Grace across your soul, lighting the way
So you can know how to let go of your tears
When life leaves you feeling sad
And nothing on earth feels quite this bad
Breathe a promise into the sand and sea
Lavender hues of promise and prayer
Soothing away all the worries you’ve had
And reminding you to always listen and care
When life brings you flavors of anger and hate
Laugh at these moments that are your sure fate
Lighten your heart with moonlight dreams
And caress the kindness written on the night
Painting the stars in a dazzling mystery
Filled with silent inspirations that sigh with wonder
When life publishes poetry through the air
Caressing your naked fancy with a sense so rare
Sunshine and butterflies – birds that haunt
With their songs so alive, colorful and bright
Leaving music that peppers thoughts with calm
Flavors so soothing they linger on and on
When life darkens your faith and dims your dreams
Awakening the apprehension with trouble that screams
Rousing the sense of yearning within an anxious soul
Delivering suspicion and fear, leaving hearts aware
That even in the greatest moments there are silhouettes
Shaded in dread, fretting and distress – unease and unrest
When life sounds like thunder beating against your hope
And you can’t find a way through the struggles to cope
Know that God is with you, a flicker of courage in the dark
Preparing you for the day when you’ll see this effort
As merely a battle that was meant to teach you how
To learn and grow, to know – you can always rely on God
The truth of His love is beyond explanation
His love is alive, like the joy I feel on the inside
When I sense His gentle kiss on my open heart
And long for the still, calm touch of His hand
When He traces a path through my crimson veins
Into my laughter, my life, my love – into my soul
Where God is in full control!
