When trials test your tenacity

When trials test your tenacity

                                                     

Look up as trials test your tenacity 
Be not dismayed but earnestly pray 
He who loves you unconditionally 
Is surely touched by your perplexity 

You can weep in silence but hold on firmly 
Never let go the hand of the Almighty 
He’ll keep his promises with all certainty 
His blessings are abundant and timely 

The darkness will soon fade away 
And dawn will break to light the day 
After enduring a crucible patiently 
You’ll shine forth in greater beauty 

The process of spiritual maturity 
Requires submission and humility 
But God will guide you constantly 
Until you surpass this difficulty 

So rejoice and be glad exceedingly 
For God is molding you skillfully 
His design for you is great and lofty 
Yield to Him and claim the victory
