The Desert Bloom
by Deborah Ann Belka

The desert land is now a bloom,
with fruit clinging to the vine
what once was barren, is now fruitful
and flows with everlasting wine.

Years of drifting in the wilderness,
have finally come to an end
darkness now is full of joyful light
as the lonely have found their friend.

The bud of love, blossoms into grace,
stirring the strings of the arid heart
praise for everlasting mercies they sing
songs of a new and abundant start.

The weaken hand is made strong,
the feeble knee now too stands
for they have found God's justice
and place their trust in His hands.

Once blind eyes now can see,
deaf ears now can hear each sound
of the mute tongue song of praise
and the lame's leap of eternal bound.

Hands held high overhead,
giving God the glory He is due
rejoice, rejoice, and again rejoice
for Jesus came to save you!

Isaiah 35: 1-6
