The days we're dealt seem all too brief
And parting hurts, yes, causes grief
But as we're born, so too, we die
And as we laugh, so too, we cry
Yes, as there's joy, so too, there's pain
A time for each is life's ordain
And through it all He wants to be
Our anchor in the storm-tossed sea;
Our compass in the blackest night;
Our ever-burning beacon light;
A faithful friend through thick and thin;
The sacrifice...for all our sin;
Our covering, our hiding place;
The giver of amazing grace;
And when our days on earth are past
Home in His arms we'll be at last
And we shall tread where they have trod
-The angels of our mighty God
And with the angels we shall sing
Eternal praises to our King!

Your unabashed love for God is both refreshing and inspiring ... keep using your talent to sing His glory!

Well I know I need a hiding place at times, and what better one than God?
