Like Joseph, Like David

Like Joseph, Like David

by Joel Howard

in the desert raised
to give Him praise
to sustain life
preserve life
at the end of all things
in difficult days
in famine, sustained
in war, remain
in pestilence, abstained
in shaking, unmaimed

Like Joseph

Like David

humbly raised

pre-ordained

great-works 

now for

God's friends

step in

happened once

will again
