Jesus , Your Embrace

Jesus It's Your Embrace
When the dark clouds gather,
And the winds are howling,
When the waves are crashing around me
And when I can't hear Your voice

Jesus , it's Your embrace
That comforts me
Jesus , your embrace
Keeps me safe and sound
Drives my fears away
Jesus , it's Your embrace

When the world seems unkind,
And the smiles are gone
When hopes are shattered and splintered
And when doubts come, doubts assail me

I will trust You in the valley
I will lean into Your promises
Jesus all I have is You
Jesus all I have is You


Recently , at the start of the new year, I came across many tales of difficulties and sadness. It pains me to hear of them. Many of us, long to start the new year on a bright note but occasionally such happiness eludes us because of circumstances.

In moments like these , we have to lean into Jesus who is our refuge and our mighty tower. We have to trust Him to deliver us. I remember the times of darkness in my life when I clung to Him . But there were times when I was angry with Him and ran from Him.... yet He never let me go. He embraced me even in my anger and He soothed me with His presence.

The words for this song came tumbling through my mind and I pray it may minister to you.
