A Caring God

Blessed are those who suffer and grieve,
For they'll have much comfort to relieve;
The Lord is in my sorrow and in my pain,
I believe that God cares about our strain;
In love's service only broken hearts'll do,
Within His caring He'll be able to construe;
Anyone who may be suffering let him pray,
He needs to talk to God of why so dismay;
Fervent prayer of the righteous avails much,
God will come to give His Heavenly touch;
He cares and is in the miracle profession,
There's a miracle for every depression;
The God of all comfort consoles all of us,
So we may be able to relieve the stress;
I am able to rejoice in any of my anguish,
God is at work to prevent any languish;
My soul has total peace and happiness,
Being saved knowing of my righteousness;
I really know just how much God cares,
Seeing the Cross shows the love He shares.
