I wanted to share this with you valiant soilders that labor in prayer, you who take watches in the night. May the Lord cause our roots to grow deep in His love and for each other. Beloved Warriors of Christ. THE WATCHES OF THE NIGHT by KRISTYN GETTY I look towards the wintering trees To hush my fretful soul As they rise to face the icy sky And hold fast beneath the snow Their rings grow wide, their roots go deep That they might hold their height And stand like valiant soldiers Through the watches of the night And no human shoulder ever bears The weight of all the world But hearts can sink beneath the ache Of trouble’s sudden surge Yet far beyond all knowing There’s a strong unsleeping light That reaches ‘round to hold me Through the watches of the night I have cried upon the steps that seem Too steep for me to climb And I’ve prayed against a burden I did not want to be mine But here I am and this is where You’re calling me to fight And You I will remember Through the watches of the night You I will remember Through the watches of the night.
