In the deepest, darkest pit
You were there
When all abandoned me
You knew my grief
When I was struck
You felt the pain
When fear paralyzed me
You were beside me
When others heckled me
Your words soothed me
When rejected, cast aside
You pulled me near
When tears engulfed me
You wiped them away
When I felt no love from others
Your love remained true
You never abandoned me
Always by my side
Dear God you’re always there
Always faithful to me
You’ve blessed me
When when I felt no blessing
Filled me up
When I felt depleted
You are the one true God
The everlasting father
Your love and grace endures
Through all that life gives
Your are the eternal
In a temporal world
“Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does. The Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down.” — Psalm 146:13-14 (NIV)

Tiny saplings reaching up
Toward sky so blue above
Young faith taking root
With new found faith in God
Growing up in shadows
Of God’s faithful high above
Towering trees rising up
Above tiny saplings below
Deep roots holding strong
Against many storms of life
Canopy of green leaves
Glowing in light above
Branches skim the heavens
Leaves quiver in the breeze
The Spirit of God is evident
To faithful saplings below
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. – Hebrews 12:1-2 (NIV)
