Renewed Strength

Today I just want to share the words to a song that have been
bringing me such joy today.  I don't know where each of you are
physically, spiritually, or emotionally, but God does.  I have the
following song on a CD that I have and the CD is my "go to" one when I
need to reset my focus on heavenly things.

The song is called "In Your Silence"

In Your word I find the echoes of the questions in my mind;

Have I fallen from Your favor, is Your ear to me inclined?

When Your silence is unbroken, though my prayer ascends each day,

Father, keep my faith from failing in the face of long delay.

While You wait in gracious wisdom and my doubts begin to rise,

I recall Your loving kindness, and lift my hopeful eyes.

While Your hand withholds the answer, I will not withhold my heart.

I will love you in Your silence, I will trust You in the dark.

When the troubled thoughts within me hold me wakeful in the night,

And the shadows that surround me seem to hide me from Your sight.

Father, bring to my remembrance mercies shown in days gone by.

Help me rest upon Your promise: You will not neglect my cry!

While You wait in gracious wisdom and my doubts begin to rise,

I recall Your loving kindness, and lift my hopeful eyes.

While Your hand withholds the answer, I will not withhold my heart.

I will love you in Your silence, I will trust You in the dark.
