From Where My Help Comes ~

Whenever I am sad,
 when burdens overcome
 I lift my eyes to heaven
 where my help comes from.

Praying, I ask for relief,
 from my swollen eyes
 I know the One I believe
 will listen to my cries.

Whenever I am restless,
 when my fears overpower
 I lift my eyes to heaven
 to the One who’ll empower.

I let my mind engulf,
 the magnitude of His grace
 the One who’s full of mercy
 gives me peace to embrace.

Whenever I am sad,
 I lift my head up high
 knowing that my tears
 the One I trust will dry!

~~~~~~~~~

Psalm 121:1

“I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills,
  from whence cometh my help.”

The Joy of Knowing Jesus ~

There's nothing quite like,
the joy of knowing Jesus
how in every circumstance
He is always with us.

No matter the situation,
Jesus is always there
our happiness is in knowing
our burdens He will bear.

In times of want and need,
whatever be our condition
our gladness is in knowing
He'll supply each provision.

When feeling overwhelmed,
by so many troubling things
our peace comes from knowing
the joy ~ Jesus brings!
