Job 2

In the crucible of pain, my spirit refines,

Tested by flames, where true strength entwines. Though the fire burns, and shadows descend,

My faith unyielding, until the very end.

In dust and ashes, I lament and mourn,

Stripped of all, my spirit feels forlorn.

Loss surrounds me, a heavy, somber shroud,

Yet in humility, my head is bowed.

Why me, oh Lord? I cry into the night,

Why this burden, this endless plight?

In silent anguish, my questions rise,

Seeking solace in Your starlit skies.

I roam the earth, a shadow in the light

Twisting faith, and turning day to night.

I whisper doubts, and sow seeds of despair,

Testing the loyal, with snares beyond compare.

From the heart of the storm, Your voice resounds,

In the whirlwind's dance, Your power abounds.

Who am I to question Your grand design?

In awe and wonder, I know Your might is mine.

Though darkness lingers, and trials may test,

I know my Redeemer lives, I am blessed.

With unwavering faith, I hold on tight,

For in His promise, there is eternal light.

Like Job of old, I wait with steadfast heart,

Through trials endured, a brand new start.

In patience, I find strength to carry on,

Trusting in hope, until the break of dawn.

In times of sorrow, false comfort they bring,

The counsel of the ungodly, a deceptive thing.

Their words like poison, twisting truth and grace,

Leading astray, from God's loving embrace.

Dust in my mouth dirt on my skin

The storm rolls in I can't outrun sin

My house fell down my riches blew away

Friends point fingers but they don't stay

Ashes on my head i wear the crown

The king of nothing my throne broke down

Why me I scream at the empty sky

No answer no echo just the question why

The accuser laughs his voice like stone

You're all alone your faith is on loan

He whispers lies that sting like bees

I fight the swarm but it brings me to my knees

Sores on my hands scars on my soul

Every loss leaves a deeper hole

But still I stand still I breathe

Still I believe in what I can't see

Strip me bare take my name

I'm still here I'm not the same

Trial by fire burn me clean

Through the ashes I'm unseen

Dust to dust I rise I fall

Who will catch me when I lose it all

The book of Jobe

Out the dust comes a voice so loud

Whirlwind spinning tearing the clouds

Questions thunder lightning breaks

Who set the oceans who drew the lakes

Stars align but they don't compare

To the God that answers in the air

I can't see but I feel Him near

Through the storm His power is clear

Lost my house lost my pride

Friends sat down then they lied

Counsel of fools whispers so grim

But they can't see the fire within

Patience ain't passive it's war in the soul

Waiting for the dawn when He makes me whole

The storm's not quiet but my heart won't break

Even in silence I feel the quake

My Redeemer lives I stand I know

Even in the ashes let the truth show

The whirlwind speaks and I bow low

My Redeemer lives let the whole world know
