'''Sonnet on Endurance''' Text by Nathan Howe ''For Norma'' My Savior is the Lord of Outstreched Arms Inviting all to look to Him and live. To reach Him, I must stand against the storms Encouraged by the peace I know he'll give. My Savior is the Lord of Healing Hands, Though healing may not happen right away. To work and wait and strive for all we can Will stretch our souls until the perfect day. My Savior knows the pain of every heart, For He has felt the sting of every sin. He promises, if I will do my part, He'll lift me up and lead me home again. O Father, wilt Thou help me to endure The fire that will refine and make me pure! ©2006 Nathan Howe [http://gratemusic.com gratemusic.com] This text may be copied for noncommercial school, church and home use only.
