Lift up your head…!
for tomorrow comes
Lift up your head…!
listen…! hear revelry’s drum
Troubles…will pass…
contentment will abound
ribbons of tranquil …be as grass
present distress…will not be found
You’ll soon find that…‘peace on earth’…
were not …mere cherub’s words
yet, a promise… from Jehovah’s court
of what faith does concur
Admittedly, some paths be not a lark, for…
ongoing…is this war…against wrong
wherefore, you have…heavenly garments…
thus, don them…and be strong
Ravish….His Living Word…
let adorning of prayer…be ever
revive…with healing chords of praise
rebuke doubt’s taunt…and sever
You would not be standing…
if...God had not so endowed
but...He knows...what you can bear...
albeit, what He has allowed
These times of heavy languishing…
changes…to only a reflective thought
as you peer through a serene pane,
and tread docile waters…He…wrought
The King of Glory…lovingly claims
each tear the …tried… sheds
it’s not the end, but a new beginning…
Lift up your head!

No need to wait for God to intervene we are doing good ourselves, even if we suspect that we are not, because we actually know the difference and can act on it positive ways like making or revising law and acting better than we have in the past.
