THE TEST
One day this same test will be your testimony,
And you won't stand on mere ceremony.
You'll raise your hands high and boldly say,
What God had done - and how he'd made a way.
You may share the doubts that tried to fill your head,
Tell of the fiery darts, and the tears you shed.
Of all those sleepless nights - tossing in your bed,
First counting sheep - then being shepherded.
Then - Hallelujah! - Tell of the peace you'd found
That enabled you to, somehow, rebound -
How you'd "let go" and simply trusted God,
And the Lord was there with his staff and rod.
To light - to lead - to rule, and guide,
And as he'd decreed, to always abide.
Yes - one day this test will be your testimony,
Of how the Lord never left you lonely.
How he was there to guide you through,
And you will share what you know is true.
Though troubled on every side,
In the end - you were not distressed.
Because he who'd promised to abide,
Was there to see you through the test.
