He can turn the tides

dear n276,

just want to share with everyone the lyrics of a song that i learnt in primary school and that i just recalled. tong knows this song too and maybe yvonne as well.

the song is called "He" and it reassures us that God's presence is always with us, He will always answer our cries and know our deepest needs, and He'll see us through good times and bad. let's all learn to trust in God at all times and never to lean on our own understanding.

He

He can turn the tide and calm the angry sea

He alone decides who writes a symphony

He lights every star that makes our darkness bright

He keeps watch all through each long and lonely night

He still finds the time to hear a child's first prayer

Saint or sinner call and always find Him there

Though it makes Him sad to see the way we live

He'll always say "I forgive"

He can grant a wish or make a dream come true

He can paint the clouds and turn the grey to blue

He alone knows where to find the rainbow's end

He alone can see what lies beyond the bend

He can touch a tree and turn the leaves to gold

He knows every lie that you and I have told

Though it makes Him sad to see the way we live

He'll always say "I forgive"

am reminded of His love for me again, and i'll definitely strive to find comfort in Him everyday instead of leaning on my own understanding. i see now that God has always had me on His mind, putting me through kindergarten at a church, 10 years of education in a methodist school, bringing me to junior college and introducing me to a friend who brought me to her church and to know fellow Christians in school (and we would meet during our tues break to sing and pray together), then giving me the opportunity to come back to Him when i left my friend's church and drifted away from Him for a period of time. and He's given me an aunt who constantly reminds me of how to be a good Christian.

am so glad that i've a wonderful family in Christ now, and it's you guys in n276. although at times the bond is not as strong as it could be, and although sometimes i get a bit disillusioned, i know that we're definitely going to grow more united and loving towards one another, with God's help.

love all of you, love our wonderful church and our wonderful God. have a great week ahead!
