A Follow-Up Post...God Will Not Fail You

We had such a great response to Roy's poem, "God Will Not Fail You" and it reminded us that several years ago his friend Jonathan Urie had set it to music and sung it with his sister, Elizabeth Jean. Jonathan was able to locate the recording in digital form, and along with his talented friend John Clarke and John's wife Veronica's photographs, put together this YouTube video for all to share! May it bless you with it's message of encouragement!

I'm including the words again to remind you of God's promises as you listen...
Grace and peace,
Marina

God Will Not Fail You
By Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow
When you walk through a dark valley
No fear shall grip your soul.
When you’re climbing a steep mountain
His hand will not let go.
When you’re waiting for an answer
To a prayer in Jesus’ name,
It will soon be granted you
You won’t be brought to shame
There’s not a promise He’s ever broken,
Nothing’s failed that He has said.
He will not forsake you,
Like the sparrow you’ll be fed.
God will not fail you
He will not leave you alone;
God will not fail you
He does not forsake His own.
When in a time of suffering
You’re seeking for His touch,
His presence will not turn away
He loves you much too much.
When the pain of a great trial
Seems to tear your heart in two,
His arms reach out with mercy
To sustain and comfort you.
There’s not a promise He’s ever broken
Nothing’s failed that He has said
He will not forsake you,
Like the sparrow you’ll be fed.
God will not fail you
He will not leave you alone;
God will not fail you
He does not forsake His own.
