You calm me and bring hope
You are steady and sturdy
You are larger than what I see
You whisper truth to me
You calm me and bring hope
You are steady and sturdy
You are larger than what I see
You whisper truth to me
Our joy turned to mourning
Our passion to regret
The unspoken words now burning
Into the wounds we won’t forget
Failing became familiar
Dependence our easiest route
So we sat still in what we knew
Bowing to our own self doubt
Now there’s a new vision brewing
Showing us who we can be
Apart from what we’ve known
Lays before us a new destiny.
For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.
Isaiah 43:19 NLT
My name is discernment
Trust what I reveal and know
I show you the hidden things
You’d otherwise never be told
I show you opportunities for blessing
And how to count sorrow as joy
I whisper God’s wisdom
Amid this world’s noise
I sense when something new is brewing
When it is time to block an attack
I sense calmness and times to be still
When to move on and when to hold back
I’m a gift, don’t ignore me
Shut me out or throw me away
Embrace me and listen
Trust what I say
Don’t give me earthly wisdom
Opinions flood in by the multitude
No the only wisdom I want
Is that which comes from You
It’s not with my eyes
My touch or my nose
It’s something down deep
That knows
It’s not something I heard
I read or was told
Its a truth buried deep
In my soul
