Whining in the Wilderness
Whining in the wilderness
What's going on there?
Absolutely nothing it seems
Yet you continue to scream
Groan and moan incessantly
Complain bitterly and tirelessly
Treading through the wilderness
Trekking through rugged terrain
Meanwhile God's Word you disdain
The point breakthrough and victory
To get you through, propel you forth
To redirect, rearrange you life course
Alter, enhance, improve for the better
Break every chain, bondage, and fetter
Listen carefully to me with your heart
Hear the word of life and don't depart
Although you think yourself to be smart
Some cycles of defeat can only be reversed
As you love and honor God, who others cursed
Let not your heart be bitter or angrily divorced
From the loving Lord of life who silences strife
Who quiets and stills the wayward, restless soul
Breathes fresh like to make us inwardly whole
Restoring to us what the foul devil has stole
Renewing us within to mightily arise and win
To take back the precious promises of God
To boldly enter the promised land and trod
Over every enemy that would seek to slay
Over every skeptic who doubts and says nay
Over every giant that defiantly stands in our way
Over every fearful thought that would dismay
Over every circumstances that does overwhelm
As we relinquish control and invite Jesus to the helm
To navigate, lead, guide, and direct by His Spirit
To open our hearts, so His voice we can hear it
His blessings we will embrace and not be hesitant
As we remain thankful, we shall be triumphant.
