[Raffi @RaffiWright]

When I am weary with the cost
I see the triumph of the cross
So in its shadow I shall run
Till You complete the work begun
Till You complete the work begun

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

I turn to wisdom not my own
For every battle You have known
My confidence will rest in You
Your love endures; Your ways are good
Your love endures; Your ways are good

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

Within the night I know Your peace
The breath of God brings strength to me
And new each morning mercy flows
As treasures of the darkness grow
As treasures of the darkness grow

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

When trials come, no longer fear
For in the pain our God draws near
To fire a faith worth more than gold
And there His faithfulness is told
And there His faithfulness is told

“How blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, Who walks in His ways.” Psalm 128:1

How blessed is everyone who lives in awe-filled, wholehearted surrender to the Lord, submitting to him, obeying him, and delighting in his ways. For his ways are beautiful.

If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ’tis now.

“If a sheep of Christ, Oh, wander not.”
Thomas Shepard (1605–1649)

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

To this I hold, my sin has been defeated
Jesus, now and ever is my plea
Oh, the chains are released,
I can sing, "I am free"
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

To this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me
Through the deepest valley, He will lead
Oh, the night has been won,
and I shall overcome
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

“Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy.”
Psalm 126:5

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

By grace, those who plant righteousness, even in tears, will reap God’s steadfast love and tender kindness.

“Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the Lord, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.” Hosea 10:12

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
For my life is wholly bound to His
Oh, how strange and divine,
I can sing, "All is mine"
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

O grant me wisdom from above
to pray for peace and cling to love
And teach me humbly to receive
the sun and rain of Your sovereignty
Each strand of sorrow has a place
within this tapestry of grace
So through the trials I choose to say
Your perfect will in Your perfect way

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

@JoshCouts1 I’ve been reading Religious Affections this summer. Loving it! Great to see some Edwards shared on here! 😉

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

The perfect wisdom of our God
Revealed in all the universe:
All things created by His hand
And held together at His command.
He knows the mysteries of the seas,
The secrets of the stars are His;
He guides the planets on their way
And turns the earth through another day.

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

He will hold me fast
He will hold me fast
For my Savior loves me so
He will hold me fast

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

“Let Your hand be ready to help me, For I have chosen Your precepts.” Psalm 119:173

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

I turn to wisdom not my own,
For every battle You have known,
My confidence will rest in You,
Your love endures, Your ways are good
Your love endures, Your ways are good

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.

[Raffi @RaffiWright]

Great is thy faithfulness,
Great is thy faithfulness,
Morning by morning new mercies I see.
All I have needed thy hand hast provided;
Great is thy faithfulness,
Lord unto me.
