🕑 Added 2023-06-05 17:00:07 +0000 UTCthis is my actual demo for the song "The Uses Of Adversity"
"The Uses of Adversity"
from the album Dig Here Said the Angel
I found your handprints on the pages of history
I said your ways are past finding out
'Cause you're much too small if you're not a Mystery
So don't send me rain if I bloom in drought
No don't send me certainty
If it's best for me I doubt
In the days of the nails and nights of the lash
In the season of the quake and the lightning flash
You become a slight impression on a threadbare shroud
While you hide yourself somewhere behind a thundercloud
So don't send me certainty If somehow it's best for me to doubt
'Cause I'm inclined to thrive in misery
When I'm kneeling in the garden of Gethsemane
Crying Oh Oh Oh My God, my God, have you forsaken me?
I will be mindful of the uses of adversity
I found your handprints on the pages of history
I said your ways are past finding out
'Cause you're much too small if you're not a Mystery
So don't send me rain if I bloom in drought
No don't send me certainty if somehow it's best for me I doubt
Comments
'Cause you're much too small if you're not a Mystery' - Takes a bit of faith to actually believe this (Lord, help my unbelief). Small idols require no such faith.
I feel this way a lot. It is fuel for my faith.
