Song Alert: Seasons by Hillsong

This is my second 'Song Alert' blog post 💃💃. 
Today, I stumbled on this song by Hillsong, as usual, the words in the song have ministered to me
and I hope that they do the same to you. The song reminds me that we go through seasons
in our lives, these seasons may change us, but it doesn't change our GOD. It doesn't change 
His promises to us. We are all going through a process of growth and at the end of each season,
we are renewed in HIM. 

Listening to this song, i'm reminded of the following scriptures:

“For there is hope for a tree—if it’s cut down, it sprouts again and grows tender, new branches. 
8-9 Though its roots have grown old in the earth, and its stump decays, it may sprout and bud 
again at the touch of water, like a new seedling. (Job 14: 7-9 TLB)

Everything is appropriate in its own time. But though God has planted eternity in the hearts
of men, even so, many cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.
(Ecclesiastes 3:11 TLB)

For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven. (Ecclesiastes 3:1 NLT)

My prayer for you today is that God will work out his purpose in every season of your life
and that you will allow Him. Let go and let God, His plans for you are way better than 
you can imagine or understand. Remember that in every season (no matter the season), 
He's still God and He's still good. 

Seasons by Hillsong

Words and Music by Chris Davenport, Benjamin Hastings & Ben Tan

VERSE 1
Like the frost on a rose
Winter comes for us all
Oh how nature acquaints us
With the nature of patience
Like a seed in the snow
I’ve been buried to grow
For Your promise is loyal
From seed to sequoia

PRE-CHORUS
I know

CHORUS
Though the winter is long even richer
The harvest it brings
Though my waiting prolongs even greater
Your promise for me like a seed
I believe that my season will come

VERSE 2
Lord I think of Your love
Like the low winter sun
As I gaze I am blinded
In the light of Your brightness
Like a fire to the snow
I’m renewed in Your warmth
Melt the ice of this wild soul
Till the barren is beautiful

BRIDGE
I can see the promise
I can see the future
You’re the God of seasons
I’m just in the winter
If all I know of harvest
Is that it’s worth my patience
Then if You’re not done working
God I’m not done waiting
You can see my promise
Even in the winter
Cause You’re the God of greatness
Even in a manger
For all I know of seasons
Is that You take Your time
You could have saved us in a second
Instead You sent a child

TAG
And when I finally see my tree
Still I believe there’s a season to come

VERSE 3
Like a seed You were sown
For the sake of us all
From Bethlehem’s soil
Grew Calvary’s sequoia
