Barren Lands – Isaiah 44:3
Even those
Who feel life is barren
Nothing to fulfil it
Alone in all this world
Our Father, He has promised
In the thirsty lands
There will run water
To feed the barren lands
Where nothing once grew
New life will come forth
For you and yours to come
This generation and the next
So be ready for the Spirit’s coming
Be ready to begin to plant
Upon your now fertile lands
Isaiah 44:3
In Barren Lands – Isaiah 44:3
In the barren lands
Where only the lost wander
There in the desolation
Where the broken thirst
It’s where the water will pour forth
Out of heaven
By the will of our God
To bring life
To where the dry lands hold none
A blessing to them
Who hear His voice calling
A bless for them
For all their time to come
Isaiah 44:3
The Drought – Isaiah 44:3
Dried up with the winds
That came blowing through the plains
The dust overcame your world
And your streams all dried up
Long since faded into the ground
It’s a dry and weary life
Knees to the dirt
Even the tears disappear so quickly
Still our Lord promises this
If you call upon His name
The plains in which you walk
Will be filled with His living waters
To no longer thirst for more
To be fulfilled by His love
A gift for you and all your loved ones
That’s the promise that He brings
This drought will soon be over
And then a new season begins
Isaiah 44:3
Lost To The World (Isaiah 44:3)
How did I get to this?
Where did I go wrong?
When did I let go?
What hope do I now hold?
Why does this world keep me?
What is there left I can give?
Does this world really need me?
Why is it too much for me to live?
In barren lands I find myself
Face to the dust here I cry
The only water here are my tears
Is there any escape from here?
Hold on tight me friend
The Lord will bring water to dry lands
He rescues the lost and His children from pain
And He can raise you from your depths
Just hold on tight with all you have left
For there is more in you than you know
(Part 1 of 7, Reflections of a Dark Day three years ago)
Isaiah 44:3
Isaiah 44:3
I, like so many are thankful for that journey from dry and parched lands, to lands of living water.
YOUR LOVE IS LIKE A RIVER by THIRD DAY
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When this cruel world tears us apart
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When sharpened words have left their scars
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
And it’s overflowing and showing us all
How deep and how wide is Your love
It never stops, it rages on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When I am tired and so afraid
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
When darkness comes and my vision fades
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
And it’s always burning and stirring my soul
To know You and love You much more
It never stops or ever fades
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
IT’S NEVER GONNA STOP
IT’S FLOWING FROM MY HEART
IT’S NEVER GONNA FADE
YOUR LOVE WILL LIGHT MY WAY
When all my strength and hope is gone
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
