Every worry, every sorrow Brings hope for tomorrow Every sadness, every pain Brings a rainbow after the rain Every doubt, all the fears Brings assurance through the years Every whisper from the night Brings laughter in the light Every silent feeling of dread Brings a joy that is well fed Every lingering doubt or question Brings a love from the heart’s expression Every mystery in the shadows Brings a vision that we compose Every laughter in the heart Brings peace and joy when apart Every lie, every hue of despair Brings insight in which to compare Every caution, every warning Brings a sense of grief and mourning Every guilty thought or deed Brings a need for forgiveness, agreed Every lingering emotional loss Brings a reminder of Jesus’ cross Every burden and every care Brings the heart a need of prayer Every feeling of deep despair Brings thoughts of God to prepare Every evil thought, every dark sin Brings a need of revival from within Every chance to ask God to forgive Brings second chances to finally live Every moment of praise in God’s ear Brings a opportunity for Him to hear Every plea uttered from a yearning soul Brings love’s reminder of self-control Every mouth that breathes an appeal Brings assurance that we must kneel Every word, thought or deed of grace Brings wonders divine that we embrace Every blessing from heaven that we hope Brings us the surety that we can cope Every miracle sent down to us from above Brings us the understanding of wonderful love
