Hopeless? No Way!!!!

Here is another song from the desert of my present circumstances!!!  My home has been sold at a Sheriff's sale, my unemployment has run out, no job prospects yet and we must move out on 7/31/12 for sure--maybe earlier.  I have been asked what will I do if I end up out on the street?  My answer is "My Lord will take care of me!!!"  Since I sang the song and wrote it down, Mom and I have had several people offer us a place to stay if needed. Others have offered money and food assistance.  All have offered us prayer.  Mom and I have a peace and confidence that boggles our minds but our spirits are at rest!!!!  What a gift!!!  We wouldn't trade it for anything!!!!


I thank You, Lord!!
You are my awesome reward!!!
I give you praise!!
You've been my strength in these days!!!
I shout for joy!!
For all the plans for me You employ!!!


When I fall,
You lift me far above it all!!!
When all is dark,
You bring me to my destined mark!!!
When I am unsure,
You have made my future path secure!!!
When I cry out,
You surround me with Your mighty shout!!!
When I fail,
You intervene, causing me to prevail!!!
When I am sad,
You comfort me as a loving dad!!!


So here today,
I give you thanks in my simple way!!!
My life is yours,
I look to You for all my open doors!!!
When all is gray,
I look to Your Light to find my way!!!


 It is Your voice,
That enlivens my every choice!!!
Your strength never fades,
When the enemy invades!!!
My peace is sure,
As I rest in Your Arms so secure!!!
 For no one can stand,
Against Your Mighty Hand!!!
For You love me!!
You'll never leave--I now finally see!!!
Faithful and true!!
 I can trust Your Love to bring me through!!!


When all is lost,
You intervene not heeding the cost!!!
Your vision I see,
Ever lays clear paths for me!!!
You never relent,
Until my Blessing is sent!!!
