What should we do in the desert?

What should we do in the darkness?

We lift up our eyes to the horizon of Hope, and we

PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE.

What should we do when we’re downcast?

What should we do when we’re desperate?

We fold our hands in the posture of prayer, and we

PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE.

When our thoughts swirl and awake in the night,

You exchange us a song, and You make burdens light as we

PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE.

When spinning and busy and bombarded with tasks,

You invite us to surrender, to rest, to not be in lack of

PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE.

May we sing even now the song of endless days,

For soon the dawn of Your face will dispel all the haze, and we’ll

PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE.

So as we wait in the shadows for those glorious rays,

May we be faithful and joyful, moving to the lyrical ways of

PRAISE, PRAISE, PRAISE.
