The morning is new as I meet it again And waiting for me is the mess without end And over and over and over again I kneel in the mess, my little ones to attend. For I've three little lambs who are crying again With hurts that cascade and fears that descend; And over and over and over again My love meets these lambs in their mess to transcend. •   •   •   • Reaching past the tears and the mess that is seen To touch little hearts once again With whispers of mercy and tidings of joy Of life everlasting in the end. And over and over and over again Christ's love is proclaimed to the lambs that I tend Lord, Your new morning mercies meet me again As I wait for you here in the mess that I'm in And over and over and over again You kneel in this mama's mess to rescue my heart from sin. •   •   •   • For I, Your helpless lamb, am crying again With a heart full of hurt from fears...

Wandering through desert lands On the path carved in stone. The way seems desolate As I walk here alone And over and over again I find,  This road leads back to the same broken place where I hide. I wonder, when will this road lead to you? When will my wandering in desert lands be through? When will I see you face to face? When will I stop hiding in this broken place? A sweet, gentle breeze whispers my name: "Child, look up and see the crimson rays Of the Son's wondrous glory Shining on every step of your story You are not lost in a dry desert land You are simply walking the path in my hand. And that path shall always lead you to the place you can hide, The broken place is for you to rest and abide In my mercy and grace for my wounds are your healing. You may not understand all I'm revealing In the tiny moments of your days, But know that you are never out of my gaze. What you think is wandering on an end...
