Heaven awaits Archives - A Doctor's Cure for the Soul

From Seasons of Suffering

Instead, we offer up our bodies,
A living sacrifice, upon His altar,
So be the fragrance of Christ,
Amidst your suffering, do not falter.

Yes, God promises us His grace;
Sufficient, for our hour;
His strength, is made perfect;
In our weakness, His power.

And so in spite, of dark days
Facing God’s ways, not understood
Amidst adversity, we would not choose
Keep trusting God, all for our good.

Set our mind, on things above
Tho’ still suffering, not healed
Be not focused, on our feelings
Walk by faith, in our ordeal.

So, while we may not be healed
Nor from suffering, delivered
But instead of dejection
We can rejoice, not be embittered.

Cry out for forgiveness
Accept Jesus’ gift
Exchange our rebellion
His death, bridged the rift.

For our focus is body
But God speaks to the soul
Our faith, His redemption
These make a man whole.

And beyond death, life eternal
Before His glory, we’ll be
Assured, forever with Jesus
O how blessed, are we!

Know His grace is sufficient
Despite darkness and bleakness
Do abandon all to Jesus
Claim His power, in your weakness.

Awaiting Your coming
Our hope, so blessed
Your glorious appearing
Unfailing love, expressed.
