There Are Times in my life when my heart is embittered... Yet You're drawing me!

Such a real song, expressing what we go through so many times - we are embittered, our flesh fails, we don't understand what is going on... but the Lord is still with us, drawing us to Him, He is our strength and our portion, and we pray that we would experience Him in all these things we're going through every day... - listen to it online on Youtube or the lyrics on hymnal.net.

1. There are times in my life

When my heart is embittered.

There are questions unanswered,

Yet, You're drawing me

To enter

Into Your blessed sanctuary

And turning my eyes heavenward,

The questions of constant inquiry

Are changed to these words,

2. "Whom do I have in heaven

But You, dear Jehovah.

My flesh and my heart

Constantly fail,

But God's still

The strength of my heart and my portion;

To Him forever I'll draw near.

I've made Jehovah my sweet refuge.

So now throughout the years

3. Turn my view to see You,

How I need to see Jesus!!

Though I don't understand

The ways that You take;

Lord, make me

A babe and suckling always praising.

Enjoying Your worth day by day.

Let each experience constitute me

So Your life I'll display

Amen, Lord, make us open to You so that even in things that embitter us we would open to You and enjoy You, even allow You to grow in us and spread into every part!
