1 Thessalonians 5:18, NIV
18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
When all is taken away
Don’t let my heart be changed
Let me always sing hallelujah
When I feel afraid,
Don’t let my hope be erased
Let me always sing
Let me always sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Beloved Twin,
I extend profound sympathy for the loss of your precious baby girl.
She was real.
She was here.
She was made by love and strong marriage.
She was the baby girl of Sarah & Abraham.
You are her Mommy.
Abraham is her Daddy.
She was here.
You both fell in love with her.
She was here long enough to grow, hear, feel, bask, and relay her love to you.
Your baby girl tided blessings; pebble-ripples’ lofts of Hope Marmalade.
She is a brilliant comet across the sky only she lights.
I am sorry her life ended within you.
I grieve your pain and too short a time together.
This grief- the hardest, of hard-hard cold loss & grief.
Too often it is also lonely and silent.
Humans can be very unaware.
So too, we mean well, but often say the wrong things when the heart’s intent is comfort.
I respect your process.
I do not mean to intrude.
Know I am here.
I want to be the kind of friend you need right now.
I am beyond utterly sincere.
I will honor and follow your lead.
Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,†declares the Lord,
“plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future.
I love you, twin
xoxo
I can barely stand right now
Everything is crashing down
And I wonder where you are
I try to find the words to pray
I don’t always know what to say
But you’re the one who can hear my heart
Even though I don’t know what your plan is
I know you make beauty from these ashes
I’ve seen joy and I’ve seen pain
And on my knees I call your name
Here’s my broken hallelujah
With nothing left to hold onto
I raise these empty hands to you
Here’s my broken
Here’s my broken hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Here’s my broken hallelujah

John 16:22
Therefore you now have sorrow; but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy no one will take from you.
I did my best, it wasn’t much
I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I’ll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

1 Thessalonians 5:18, NLT
Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
So I’m thankful for the scars
‘Cause without them I wouldn’t know Your heart
And I know they’ll always tell of who You are
So forever I am thankful for the scars, “Scars,” I Am They.
Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!

Psalm 119: 165
Great peace have those who love Your law,
And [a]nothing causes them to stumble.
1 Corinthians 13:5
Love does not commit what is shameful, neither does it seek its own; it is not provoked, neither does it entertain evil thoughts,
I did my best, it wasn’t much
I couldn’t feel, so I tried to touch
I’ve told the truth, I didn’t come to fool you
And even though it all went wrong
I’ll stand before the Lord of Song
With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah!
Hallelujah, Hallelujah!

Psalm 40:8
I delight to do Your will, O my God,
And Your law is within my heart.â€
Psalm 59:9-10
(9) I will wait for You, O You his Strength;
For God is my defense.
(10) My God of mercy shall come to meet me;
God shall let me see my desire on my enemies.
Baby, I’ve been here before
I know this room, I’ve walked this floor
I used to live alone before I knew you
And I’ve seen your flag on the marble arch
Love is not a victory march
It’s a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah

John 15:5
“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
When all that I can sing
Is a broken hallelujah
When my only offering
Is shattered praise
Still a song of adoration
Will rise up from these ruins
I will worship You and give You thanks
Even when my only praise
Is a broken hallelujah
