The weaker we are the better
The more unable we feel, is best
Gods' power is set to work within
When our ways are put to rest



He cannot work His will each day
While we have our might and strength
His true greatness is unleashed
When our determined soul is spent

So, do not fear tomorrows
Our failings, age or strife
For they come to us as treasures
To unveil more of His life



The greater pain we suffer
The more He's with us there
The deeper the valley of sorrow
The sweeter His tender care

He comes to lift our broken hearts
To hold us in His love
He's refining us to be His jewels
As diamonds from the dust
