Taught by Trials

Therefore, welcome your trials
Your waiting, and suffering
Since God is perfecting
Become His fragrant offering.

Not to let God’s Word
Depart from their heart
But, teach to their offspring
Be diligent, to guard.

So, our God allows trials
That our faith be tenacious
Great faith, be made complete
To be perfected, need patience.

So, we likewise must repent
Of rebelling, and sleeping
We should rather, seek God
Not self-serving, but reaping.

And here, Jesus reminds
It’s not what we say
Our words can be empty
It is whether, we obey.

Let us pray for the nations
Yes, pray day and night
And give God no rest
Till He send them light.

Yes LORD, open doors
Despite such oppression
Midst violence and fear
Make Somalia, Your possession.

LORD, open their eyes
Set North Koreans free
From darkness to light May their multitudes see.

Are we pouting, or praising
Is our attitude, right?
Are we thankless or thankful
When we’re out of sight?

Man is driven by sin
So focused, enticed
Instead, see God’s perspective
Stay centered, on Christ.
