Grace in the Shadows


Life’s chaos has so many loud voices,
That has us making all sorts of choices,
Some hard, some good, and even some bad
That makes us happy or makes us sad

But in the shadows of our cries
There is One who looks down through the skies…
Who hears our midnight prayers,
When we feel that no one else cares

At times, we feel so alone
That’s when He looks down from His majestic throne
Showering us with His endless grace
Wiping those tears from our faces

Always there amid our heartfelt needs
Forever hearing our cries and desperate pleas
Turning impossible problems around
Keeping us standing on the solid ground

Of His eternal word
That many of us have also heard
So that many lost souls may be found
And even many more astounded

Who will be able to say
Thank you for keeping me in Your way
Thank You, LORD, for all You have done
Thank You Almighty Holy One!
