Acres Of Hope

Acres Of Hope
Shane & Shane

He will allure her
He will pursue her
And call her out
To wilderness with flowers in His hand
She is responding
Beat up and hurting
Deserving death
But offerings of life are found instead

She will sing
She will sing
Oh, to You
She will sing as in the days of youth
As You lead her away
To valleys low
To acres of hope
Acres of hope

Here in the valley
Walk close beside me
Don't look back
For love is growing vineyards up ahead
You have called me master
And though you're in the dark here
Call me friend
And call me lover and marry me for good

She will sing
She will sing
Oh, to You
She will sing as in the days of youth
As You lead her away
To valleys low
To acres of hope
Acres of hope

How the story ends is
Love and tenderness in Him
Not safe, but worth it
So the valley? up ahead
Or the ones we live
We'll sing together
We'll sing together

We will sing
We will sing
Oh, to You
We will sing as in the days of youth
As You lead us away
To valleys low
To acres of hope
Acres of hope


Lord, sustain me in the valley. Give me ears to hear Your sweet tender voice and lead me in to acres of hope in this dry and weary land.?"Therefore I am now going to allure her; I will lead her into the desert and speak tenderly to her. There I will give her back her vineyards, and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. There she will sing as in the days of her youth, as in the day she came up out of Egypt. In that day, declares the LORD, you will call me 'my husband'; you will no longer call me 'my master. (Hosea 2:14-16)


"I am so passionate about you, that I shun you not when you stray away, but I will gently draw you close to Me again. I will do anything to win your heart..I have given you life in My Son. Walk with me, come hold my hand and walk with me. I am all that you will ever need...I LOVE YOU"-God

Lynn, You never know how much it has touched me, the poem or song, the acres of hope that we all have but sometimes felt none. I pray you wait patiently in the LORd and may His grace be with you always...loving you.
