Turnabout
When your life seems bleak
And when you feel lost
Then hear the Lord speak
No matter the cost
He’ll show the way out
The light at the end
If on that long route
Your hand you Him lend
The night turns to day
A blessing from curse
Fall not for dismay
He’ll all that reverse
All about is in shambles
As a ship turned to wreckage
But the Lord daily scrambles
A mess into a message
You are beset by great temptation
Deep inside you feel like a phony
God will bring a transformation
A test into a testimony
Daily in adversity
Barely forward you galumph
God makes of infirmity
A trial into a triumph
You can’t escape your poverty
A tragedy is your history
The Lord will mold like pottery
A victim into a victory
Thus all the things work
For the good of those
Who make it a perk
And God’s love bring close
In no other way has man succeeded
Safe through this most fiery furnace
It is the very discipline needed
To develop purity and firmness
So have no concern
God will surely turn
A mess into a message
A test into a testimony
A trial into a triumph
A victim into a victory
