Rejoice, Even In Suffering

 

I’ve watched as those I love suffer,
Yet still lift up Your praise,
Knowing that You will hold them through
Even their darkest days.
 
When they walk through the dark valley,
Your light is at their feet,
And though they cannot see ahead,
You know the path complete.
 
Therefore, their trust is safe in You,
They rest beneath Your wing.
Even when life’s troubles arise,
They lift their voice and sing.
 
That is the faith I want to have,
The faith to see me through.
When I am lost and broken, Lord,
Let me rejoice in You.
 
I ask You, Lord, to keep me close
Along life’s dark pathways,
And help me keep a heart of praise
Even on pain filled days,
 
Psalm 103:1
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name!
