In times of crisis, trials,
when Christ feels far away
we must focus on our history;
we must remember God’s gifts
God’s answer to our prayers
The bits of grace heaped on us
by God, living waters,
when we felt close to God;
little piece of meaning
God meets our daily needs
Filling some niche
something that we needed
though we may not know it at the time;
God is close by us
all of our days
Even when we wander
when
we are in the desert
when we struggle to sense God;
God is with us always
just as He promised
