"Faith"
The legs of the shearling are unsteady
So he falls gently over
Oh Lord let the grass under him be soft
Let him be safe from danger
The leaves of the maples are bowing overhead
But for you and I we are safe
The storming and clashing of great battles
As we lay here and listen
On and on they rush into the night
In a war that goes on and on
I am your only protector
I am your only friend
I hope God finds mercy for us
For only He can protect us
I love you dear with all my heart
I wish that I could clothe you
If I were a millionaire
I'd surround you with dazzling lights
So many people's dreams were crushed
Yea, they were crushed and shattered
I listen intently with calm eyes
And I wait for your knock at the door
I'm traveling across the snowfilled wilderness
I'm travelling in my heart
And when I open my eyes
There is a warm fire and good food
Waiting for me to feed you
I am deeply grateful to God for this
Tell The Lord I am deeply sorry
For the things I have had to do
Babies take first priority, You know
As I always say
His needs are getting met, Lord,
That is all that matters
He was hungry and he begged me to help
And I gave him help without fear
If our sled is dashed to pieces
And we're scattered in the snow
We'll wake up soon in paradise
Oh, this I know
But there's magic in the struggling
There's magic in the snow
There's magic in the hope of safety
And the help from deep below
Where stars are swallowed hopelessly
And breaths are all snuffed out
He will help us, Oh surely He
The Lord of All-Sustaining fuel
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
