Tenaciously Clinging

Sometimes it is so hard to press on in life,
When surrounded by pain, chaos, and strife,
It is hard to keep on fighting the good fight,
When puddles form from weeping in the night,
God has not forsaken you in your time of need, 
His promises are still true - they're still true indeed,
Though weary O brother and sister at this present time,
Keep pressing on until the bells of faith once again chime,
Build your life on the word a strong secure foundation,
When winds howl against you and there is no explanation,
It is time to summon courage where fear and doubt rages,
He's been faithful throughout history down through the ages,
Yesterday is gone and cannot be rewound or undone,
Tomorrow is not promised nor guaranteed to anyone,
We have today, to press on in endurance to trust the Lord,
We don't want what doubt brings and lack of faith affords,
So don't lose heart or grow weary in pressing on up ahead,
But rather tenaciously cling to God and His promises instead.
