Desert Song
by Hillsong United
This is my prayer in the desert
And all that’s within me feels dry
This is my prayer in the hunger in me
My God is a God who providesAnd this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flamesAnd I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon forged against me shall remainI will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is hereAnd this is my prayer in the battle
And triumph is still on it’s way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I’ll standAll of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worshipThis is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I’m filled to be emptied again
The seed I’ve received I will sow
“And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.”
Mark 6:31 KJV
How often do we feel overwhelmed by the noise of the world around us? Life pulling us in every direction. Phones. Appointments. Deaths. Births. School. Work. Church. Clean the house. Do the laundry. Write that dissertation. Make that casserole. Mow the lawn. Pay the bills. There is so much coming and going in our everyday lives. Some days it’s all we can do to pick up the phone and order dinner. Again.
Christ reminds us to come to Him in a desert place. That desert place can be a bathroom, a closet, even out in the driveway in your car.
It can be 5 minutes or 5 hours. Remember that time has no meaning to our Father in Heaven and when you lay your heart before Him, He will make seconds seem like hours. He will give you rest. He will give you peace.
Meet Him in your quiet place. Meet Him in Your desert. He will give you a reason to worship. He will give you reason to sing. He is all you need.
Blessings, Jenny, Freida, Michelle, and Ingrid
