It is in the moments along our journey that cause us to seek God's face and draw nearer to Him. That is why I Praise God for the moments of brokenness, the midnight hour, the deserts and the valleys. Those moments bring us to deeper levels in Him and those are places and times I would not trade for anything!
When all is said and done each part of the journey brings us closer to Him, makes us stronger and more beautiful than when we began.
God truly does pursue1 us and in all things He is there2. He is the morning light3, the "sunrise" of our lives. Joy does come in the morning4 and it is always His face we see that brings us peace, joy and contentment!
I pray you enjoy this song as I did and allow the lyrics to speak to your heart. May God Bless your heart and your journey. For in Him it will be successful5 and something of beauty to hold onto!

Lyrics:
If I had the chance
To go back again
Take a different road, bear a lighter load
Tell an easy story
I would walk away
With my yesterdays
And I would not trade what is broken for beauty only
Every valley
Every bitter chill
Made me ready to climb back up the hill
And find that . . .
You are sunrise
You are blue skies
How would I know the morning
If I knew not midnight?
You're my horizon
You're the light of a new dawn
So thank You, thank You
That after the long night, You are sunrise
There's a moment when
Faith caves in
There's a time when every soul is certain God is gone
But every shadow is evidence of sun
And every tomorrow holds out hope for us
For every one of us
You are sunrise
You are blue skies
How would I know the morning
If I knew not midnight?
You're my horizon
You're the light of a new dawn
So thank You, thank You
That after the long night, You are sunrise
You alone will shine
You alone can resurrect this heart of mine
You are sunrise
You are blue skies
How would I know the morning
If I knew not midnight?
You're my horizon
You're the light of a new dawn
So thank You, thank You
That after the long night, You are sunrise
You are sunrise
