NO HOPE FOR YOU?
Dark times came slithering into my life, Dark times with venom of struggle and strife, Dark days hung like clouds in the air, Dark whispers spoke of ultimate despair. No hope for you O Adam's son, No hope for you O sinning one, No hope at all child of this sod, No hope for you, no hope in God. Failures swirled about and encircled my head, Failures hissing their doubts and their dread, Failures mounting up mountainous in size, Failures prophesying of my demise. No hope for you O Adam's son, No hope for you O sinning one, No hope at all child of this sod, No hope for you, no hope in God. Turning to Him to stop this assault, Turning to Him O grace given halt, Turning to Him for whisperings to cease, Turning to Him for mercy's release. No hope for you O Adam's son? No hope for you O sinning one? No hope at all child of this sod? There's hope for you - but only in God. He is a shield, a shield all about, He is a shield from darkness and doubt, He is a shield, flaming arrows to quench, He is a shield from sin and death's stench. No hope for you O Adam's son? No hope for you O sinning one? No hope at all child of this sod? There's hope for you - but only in God. My Glory, arrested by a life-changing name, My Glory, the only One worthy of fame, My Glory, blinded by a sight-granting view, My Glory, all glory owned only by You. No hope for you O Adam's son? No hope for you O sinning one? No hope at all child of this sod? There is hope for you - but only in God. Head-lifter, golden scepter extended to me? Head-lifter, are those scars in your hand I see? Head-lifter, can it be that I see Your face? Head-lifter, Bestower of mercy and grace, Now hope for you O Adam's son. Now hope for you O blood-bought one. Now hope for you, child of this sod. Now hope for you - but only in God.

Pastor John LawrencePsalms for Life . . . God moved on several people to write the Psalms. This is a book of songs and poems written by people who were seeking to be devoted to God as they walked though their lives. This is a collection of songs and poems that express the true, wonderful, and often raw emotions that we have as we journey through life with God. I hope you will be blessed and encouraged as you read. But more than that I hope that these expositions and writings will help you to seek Him in the midst of the life you live in this world. It will be at times comforting and encouraging, while at others it will be challenging and awkward. Regardless of where you find yourself on this spectrum as you read, it will be a reminder that God invites us into His presence to truly walk with Him, know Him, and at times, pour out emotions of joy, sorrow, frustration, anger, and everything else you can imagine. He not only invites you to do this - He delights in it too! Hope you enjoy your journey! Archives
