He's more than Power and Might

Through the tears of despair, 

and of sorrow and care 

that were clouding my eyes and my heart,

through the haze of my pain, or when worry would reign,

a glimmer of hope seemed to start.

As I look around I see 

a towering mountain’s majesty, 

completely overwhelming me. 

               Until                        

  

 Tumbling clouds and breezes rise

to wipe my sad and tortured eyes.

And I listen. 

Then I hear

God’s thunder. 

the music is like clapping hands,

drumbeats at my Lord's command. 

Amidst the din 

a flash of fire,

a white-hot spear hurled from on high. 

Assurance that our master’s hand   

holds strength and power at His command.

God’s might and majesty I see,

they could undo or frighten me. 

But He had more to show this child, 

His tender care, love undefiled.

Upon a tree, amidst the storm I see in God’s design

a mother’s wings surround her chick. 

Protection – 

wall of downy love,

a picture of our God above.

And in this place of wind and rain

protection lives within the pain.

Protecting care for little things 

is what our God has planned.

For God is more than storms and power.

He’s “love” with outstretched hand.

Seeing now the world He formed 

with love and care, 

and strength and might, 

with beauty, and with awesome light,

there’s healing in my broken soul.

Creator’s voice has made it whole. 

Because these awesome pictures show 

what my heart should always know.

My God is in control!
