Look how God turned it around Oh! What God can do Two years ago I was in frowns As my world came crashing down Nothing would go right for me I never knew how sad and hopeless life could be
Sustained by friends encouraging wors To never give up inspired by artists songs That the Lord would deliver Clinging to preachers messages of hope Readind His word, and praying more and more This is how I kept going
And just as I thought I was permanently down Oh! God turned it around Oh! What God can do His mercy is forever, His word so true.
Now I see Why You didn’t answer me When I prayed But you delayed You delayed the blessings for better times And now I see, now I have an open mind
Some things needed to be straightened out Before this blessing I received If I would have gotten it earlier I wouldn’t have been happy
I didn’t understand all the obstacles that got in the way But it was Your intention to delay And now I see You were protecting me
And You made it better Than I would have imagined You blessed me with more than I was asking It’s better than I thought it would be You delayed the blessing And now I see.
Scripture Reference God can bless us beyond our imagination. But His time for the blessing may be different from the time we expect to receive it. Ephesians 3:20 Says “Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,”
And Acts 1 :7 says “And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.”
Today the Navy’s Blue Angels did a flyover over the city They did it to give special thanks to the healthcare workers For their tireless, heroic, work during this pandemic As I thought about the well, deserved jester Not only to the health care workers; but for all who work the front line I thought about how God deserves an even higher thanks
It is God who is keeping everything intact while we struggle He is watching over the health care and frontline workers And God Himself is a tireless worker Every day and every night He’s keeping the earth intact Letting His earth still supply food and water Letting the sun shine and the rain fall Supplying the earth with what’s needed for medicines and vaccines And giving knowledge to scientists and those who develop technology
I can’t fly a jet, but I can lift my hands and open my mouth with praise Thanks Lord, for keeping us during these difficult days I wanna be like the people in Nehemiah’s time I wanna bless the Lord the great God with lifted hands and praise in my mouth
Nehemiah 8:6 And Ezra blessed the Lord the great God. And all the people answered Amen, Amen with lifting up their hands; and they bowed their heads, and worshipped the Lord with their faces to the ground
