We don’t know what to do,

My poem today is based on King Jehoshaphat prayer in 2 Chronicle.

Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” 2 Chronicles 20:12

We don’t know what to do, 

But our eyes are on you. 

In you Father we take refuge

For the battle belongs to you. 

 

When troubles enlarge and fear engulfs 

When suffering creeps in and pain cripples

When anger grips and bitterness grows

When all efforts fail and hope falters 



We don’t know what to do, 

But our eyes are on you. 

In you Father we take refuge

For the battle belongs to you. 



When sorrow fills and the tears rapidly flow

When the body gives and the bones in agony grind

When the mind is confused and thoughts confound 

When family fights and friends fly 



We don’t know what to do, 

But our eyes are on you. 

In you Father we take refuge

For the battle belongs to you.

      God's Promises for When You Feel Overlooked — The Spacious Place

      When I was in my twenties, I was eager for a promotion at work. The position I wanted was within sight when my boss asked if I would remain in my current position and take on additional work in a different area. I wasn’t thrilled as the new area was tech-related, and technology and I don’t always ge
