There are those times in life we see
With faith that is not flawed,
A chance to touch eternity
And catch a glimpse of God.

When sadness, grief, or pain abound
That hides the light of day,
God moves us up to higher ground
And urges us to pray.

So, down upon our knees we go
And seek the Father’s face;
And, from our lips, His praises flow
As He bestows His grace.

He seeks to make it very clear
His plan for us is best.
He sends His peace and joy, and cheer.
We’re loved and healed, and blessed.

We can be sure that He is God.
He knows the route and course.
Where ere our feet on earth may trod,
He is our power source.

So, trust the Lord, the living way,
And join the pure in heart.
For, this could be the very day
The miracles will start!
