Lent series ~ O No, You Never Let Go

Psalm 139 contains the amazing verses:
If I say "Surely the darknesswill hide me and the light become night around me" ( I'm going through a tough time, Everything is going wrong around me, I'm facing trials, it's not fair, life's not good) "Even darkness will not be dark to you, the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you" (my dispair won't stop you loving me, won't stop you being with me.  You'll carry me through it, you'll lift my burden)

 Matt Redman's lyrics  talk about this:
And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth
 --------------------

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know You are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

*** Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You
