Jon & Lauren are great friends of mine that have been severely tested by the issues of life. We shared their story this past weekend via this video and we closed the service with Lauren singing the song below.
The Desert Song by Brooke Fraser
This is my prayer in the desert And all that’s within me feels dry
This is my prayer in the hunger in me My God is a God who provides
And this is my prayer in the fire In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flames
And I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon forged against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
And this is my prayer in the battle And triumph is still on it’s way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ So firm on His promise I’ll stand
All of my life, In every season
You are still God, I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
This is my prayer in the harvest, When favor and providence flow
I know I’m filled to be emptied again, The seed I’ve received I will sow
