Run

I've brought you through fire
Given a breath of fresh air
The heat has cleansed
The oxygen repaired
I've brought you down low
So I could lift you up
Emptied you out
So I could fill you up
You've tasted the bitterness
Experienced relief
Been caught in the whirlwind
Joy mixed with grief
Now are you ready?
To come walk with Me?
It's a slow, steady incline
The end you cannot see
It won't be too glamorous
Nor too dreadful a ride
Just a hill slanting upward
With Me by your side
You'll learn of My love
As we head towards the sun
And we'll walk on like this
Til you find the strength to run.
