Captain of our soul Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

Our Deep Valleys

So midst our own, deep dark valleys
We oft’ recall, our wrong behavior
Yet focus not, upon our failures
But trust in Christ, our risen Savior.

“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”
“The LORD gave, the LORD has taken
Blessed be the name, of the LORD”

Here is love, vast as the ocean
His loving kindness, like a flood
When the Prince of Life, our ransom
Shed for us, His precious blood.

God’s great love and mercy
Turns the worst into winners
Jesus paid for his wrongs
Crucified, to save sinners.

So have we died with Christ
Our flesh on the Cross?
Are we carnal and selfish
Or count all things as loss?

For parents aren’t perfect
They come with their baggage
May kids grow, self-examine
To avoid long-term damage.

Jesus taught us to pray
To our Father in heaven
For His kingdom and will
And not living, for leaven.

Be not discouraged, nor despair
As He prepares you, in Christ
Working all things for good
By grace in Him, fully sufficed.

God declared unto Abram
I will bless those, who bless you
And I will curse him, who curses you
All families on earth, blessed thro’ you.

God has written in letters
Thro’ DNA, in code
Within every cell
His signature, bestowed.
