Today's closing song was special. We sang to a music video. It was aunty Janet's idea and it was good. Relevant to the message she was sharing today about trials. Indeed, a good reminder of what trials mean to us Christians. Indeed, thank you Lord for trials. May the lyrics of this song touch your heart.

Thank you, Lord,
for the trials that come my way.
In that way I can grow each day
as I let you lead,

And thank you, Lord,
for the patience those trials bring.
In that process of growing,
I can learn to care.

But it goes against the way I am
to put my human nature down
and let the Spirit
take control of all I do.

'Cause when those trials come,
my human nature shouts the thing to do;
and God's soft prompting can be easily ignored.

I thank you, Lord,
with each trial I feel inside,
that you're there to help, lead and guide
me away from wrong.

'Cause you promised, Lord,
that with every testing,
that your way of escaping is easier to bear.

I thank you, Lord,
for the victory that growing brings.
In surrender of everything
life is so worth while.

And I thank you, Lord,
that when everything's put in place,
out in front I can see your face,
and it's there you belong.

So give me strength to do Thy Holy Will, my Lord
My Lord
