Language of Enchantment - LOOK WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE!

Look What The Lord Has Done

Many late nights in prayer
And early morning held hopes...
Hopes of breaking the chains...
Of removing the ropes

That hold back my loved ones
From being all they could be...
From the reality that Christ
Can really set the soul free.

In quiet moments of praise...
Others spattered with tears...
Faith overcoming the doubts...
Always dismissing the fears.

Sometimes it's a battle
Keeping both feet on the ground...
To scramble back up
Once life has knocked you down.

But in my weakest moments...
In my most troubled times...
I learned God will build bridges
Between all paradigms.

O, so much has transpired
Since I first met the Lord...
Each new day holds a ticket
To a loss or reward.

Yet each loss is a gain
From God's point of view...
I have learned there is nothing
He and I can't get through!

I've seen some off to Heaven...
Others blissfully wed.
I've rejoiced over babies
And wept over the dead.

I've watched mountains removed
And miracles wrought...
Seen the devil defeated
And disease brought to naught.

Forty years of fantastic
Adventures and dreams...
A lifetime of learning
What God's faithfulness means!

I look back in amazement
At all He's saved me from...
Remembering whom I was then
And whom I have become!

So, if you're looking at me
I do hope you see the Son...
For, by Grace, you are looking
At what God has done!
