Disappointment As I wait on God to work, My heart cries out, "Don't You hear?" But deep inside a peace is blooming, And I know my Lord is near. He sees the pain that I too see, He knows how much I care; He reassures me every day, I always know He is there. As the tears trail down my cheeks, And hopelessness tries to bind, My Lord has me in His arms, So His hope and joy I can find. The Lord will give needed strength, He will send me His peace; Disappointment lasts but a while, And, on life, I'll have a new lease. Without my God to see me through, Happiness I could never grasp; But He has promised joy to me, And His joy will always last. ©Sandra S. Oidtman -2011-
