Hope In Dark Places

I heard the birds start in the night,
Before the geese had taken flight,
To sing their early-morning song,
Though rain still ran in gutters long.

It’s stopped – the rain has stopped indeed!
You’ve heard our cry, O Lord, in need,
And taken us up from this dive
To fly again – as now we rise.

O Lord, I thank you in this night
For singing birds, dissolving fright;
Help us this day to walk the talk
In space you’ve cleared, now battle’s fought.

As dawn arrives, full light of day,
As clouds and shadows clear away,
Help us to take each step with You
As You through us do what You do.

Thanks.
