Is your heart heavy,
are you in pain
do your troubles . . .
fall like acid rain?
Are you in mourning,
is your heart broken
do you feel as if . . .
time has been frozen?
Are you in despair,
haven’t a notion
are you just going . . .
through the motions?
Do you feel hopeless,
times hitting you hard
has anguish left you . . .
despondent and scarred.
Well don’t you give up,
don’t fall into a heap
joy will come after
all the tears you weep.
God’s making something,
beautiful out of you . . .
just give Him your cares
and all things He’ll make new!

Isaiah 61:3
King James Version
“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion,
to give unto them beauty for ashes,
the oil of joy for mourning,
the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
that they might be called trees of righteousness,
the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.”
