Weeping
may endure for a night
But joy comes in the morning |
Psalm
30:5 - For his anger endureth
but a moment;
in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a
night,
but joy cometh in the morning. |
Yesterday's
gone
And the best is yet to come |
|
There's no more
dark nights when
Joy comes in the morning |
Revelation
22:5 - And there shall be no
night there;
and they need no candle, neither light of the
sun;
for the Lord God giveth them light:
and they shall reign for ever and ever. |
We are children
of tribulation
This world is not our friend
We have a hope and a promise |
|
No more pain
and sorrow
Every tear will be wiped away |
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. |
Restore what
the swarming
Locusts have eaten |
Joel
2:25 - And I will restore to
you the years
that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm,
and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm,
my great army which I sent among you. |
Rescue me
speedily |
Psalm
31:2 - Bow down thine ear to
me;
deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock,
for an house of defence to save me. |
You turn my
mourning to dancing
And clothe me with gladness
|
Psalm
30:11 - Thou hast turned for me
my mourning into dancing:
thou hast put off my sackcloth,
and girded me with gladness; |
Yes, you wipe
every tear away |
|
Beauty for
ashes
Oil of joy for mourning
Garments of praise for
The spirit of heaviness
You bring me joy |
Isaiah
61:3 - To appoint unto them
that mourn in Zion,
to give unto them beauty for ashes,
the oil of joy for mourning,
the garment of praise for the spirit of
heaviness;
that they might be called trees of righteousness,
the planting of the LORD,
that he might be glorified. |
