But, for a Moment

Lord, I cried unto Thee and Thou hath healed me . . .
Opening mine eyes, that I may see.
Lifted me up and made my foes to rejoice not.
Cleaned my soul and erased every dark blot.

But a moment, doth Thy anger endure.
When I plead healing, thou doth cure.
In my heart, I lift up my voice and sing.
Weeping at night, but there's joy in the morning.

With Thine own words adorning . . .
The Heavens and the earth each morning.
So, I shall not be moved, but behooved
To love and Praise Thee and be soothed.

Lord, Thou hath made my mountain, stand strong
As I gave Thee my heart, Thou doth with me, walk along.
Oh Lord, I cried to Thee, making supplication . . .
That Thou would stand, by my life's station.

Troubled on every side, Persecuted, but not forsaken.
Through Thy abundant love, never overtaken.
So life is only a moment here on earth,
As in our hearts, Christ Jesus, gives to us, rebirth.
