God is good...all the time!

I’m waiting on an answer
To a prayer I’ve prayed many times
With no happy ever after
And no fairy tale end in sight
But I’ve read that if I’ll wait for you
My strength will be renewed
So I’ll wait
And I’ll trust
And I’ll say
It’s all yours, Lord
And I give it up to you
Your grace, Lord
Is enough to see me through
Your love has given me these eyes to see
Your power governs over everything is yours, Lord

Livin’ life so stressed and hurried
Workin’ day and night on my deadlines
And I always seem to worry
And wonder if you’ll come to ease my mind
But you clothe the flowers and feed the birds
And you’ll stop to hear my every word
So I’ll pray
And I’ll trust
And I’ll say
It’s all yours, Lord
And I give it up to you
Your grace, Lord
Is enough to see me through
Your love has given me these eyes to see
Your power governs over everything is yours, Lord

And I don’t know what your doin
And your timing seems all wrong to me
But I’ve seen enough to know
That looking back I’ll finally see
And maybe that’s the point

Now I’m looking up to heaven
Thinking ‘bout the days that lie ahead
And I don’t know what to hope for
So I’ll trust the giver of hope, instead
‘cause I know that when I wait for you
My strength will be renewed
So I’ll pray
And I’ll trust
And I’ll wait…


Last week our wait ended. We finally heard that our offer was approved for the purchase of the "Old Guide house." The dream lives on... Praise God!

(btw, the above lyrics are from the heart of my musically inclined, amazingly talented, yet modestly humble husband. He is my "almost everything" and I'd be wandering without him).

What a blessing Supraks! I LOVE the song by the way. Any chance Dave would be willing to sing on camera so you can post it on your blog? I'm sure there are a bunch of us who would love to hear it. Thanks so much for sharing!

Congrats!!! What a relief. Tell Dave those lyrics are amazing. Did he put it to music? I didn't know he wrote lyrics. Share more of his words. Good luck with the house.

I'd love to get together and play. Anytime in July I'm pretty open...
