Underneath you are his eternal arms
(Deuteronomy 33:27; NET).
1. Underneath our troubles,
When we must face the test
Of worry, fear, or loneliness:
Lord, may we find your rest.
2. Underneath our sorrows,
When we live with the pain
Of anguish, loss, or suffering:
May we find hope again.
3. Underneath our questions,
When we go far astray
Through error, sin, or unbelief:
Lord, may we find your way.
4. Underneath our burdens,
When we approach each chore
With heavy heart, or weariness:
May we find peace, once more.
Keep on seeking and you will find
(Matthew 7:7; NLT).
