Promise

There's a promise in our sorrow and a blessing when we sigh,
there's a light beyound the shadows and a cleansing when we cry
So when we are discouraged and face tremendous grief,
it is during those times of trouble, that the heavens send relief.

Just listen for the Spirit, as it whispers to be still,
for there is joy and comfort beyond sad Calvary's Hill.
So if the sky should darken and if the earth should quake,
Remember life has struggles on the journey we take.

The aftermath of sorrow is beauty and pure light,
if we can fight the battle and pray with soul and might.
Seek forbearance in the hardships or when we fear or roam
Cast your burdens on the Saviour, and He'll come and take us home

For He is our great Redeemer
our only true best friend,
He promised He would never leave,
He'll guide us to the end.
