No
more worrying, worrying and pains |

No more crying, |
Isaiah

Jerusalem, and joy in my people: and the voice of
weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the
voice of crying.
Revelation 21:4
- And God shall wipe away all tears from their
eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither
sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain: for the former things are passed away. |
shedding tears
like rain
For the master has come back |
|
Gathering all
his flock |
Isaiah
40:11 - He shall feed his flock
like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with
his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall
gently lead those that are with young.
Jeremiah 23:3
- And I will gather the remnant of my flock out
of all countries whither I have driven them, and
will bring them again to their folds; and they
shall be fruitful and increase.
Jeremiah 31:10
- Hear the word of the LORD, O ye nations, and
declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He
that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep
him, as a shepherd doth his flock.
Micah 2:12 - I
will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I
will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will
put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the
flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make
great noise by reason of the multitude of men. |
Mother nature
feeds the stock
Never wanting or ever lack
So bide up, with reasoning
Humble thyself and I'll be near thee.
Bide up, with reasoning
Humble thyself and I'll protect thee |
|
Frustrated
children, humiliation was not in vain |
1
Corinthians 15:58 - Therefore,
my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable,
always abounding in the work of the Lord,
forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in
vain in the Lord. |
Through effort,
time and history
Have now found eternal gain for the dark clouds
do bring rain
Then comes the sun to shine again
So we shall walk and not look back as living
examples
cause we're black,
So bide up with reasoning
Humble thyself and I'll be near thee
Bide up with reasoning
Humble thyself and I'll protect thee
No more worrying, worrying and pains
No more crying, shedding tears like rain |
