Joel 2:25–27 (KJV)25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten,the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm,my great army which I sent among you.26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied,and praise the name of the Lord your God,that hath dealt wondrously with you:and my people shall never be ashamed.27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel,and that I am the Lord your God, and none else:and my people shall never be ashamed.🎵 Opening Worship Song: “You Make All Things Whole”Verse 1When all I see are broken days,Regret and ruin in my ways,You whisper peace into my soul—You make all things whole.Verse 2The years I thought were lost for good,You gather like no one else could.🎵 Closing Worship Song: “God of the Aftermath”Verse 3I walked through fire with ashes in my hands,Dreams like dust fell through my plans.Years I lost, too deep to count—But still You call, from holy ground.ChorusYou are the God of the aftermath,Restoring joy from sorrow’s path.You take the ruin, raise it new,And call me back to life in You.No shame remains, no fear shall last—You are the God… of the aftermath.Verse 2I wandered far, I wept alone,But still You sat upon the throne.Not one tear wasted, not one day lost—You wrote redemption in the cost.ChorusYou are the God of the aftermath,Restoring joy from sorrow’s path.You take the ruin, raise it new,And call me back to life in You.No shame remains, no fear shall last—You are the God… of the aftermath.Bridge I thought it was over, but You said begin.I thought I was broken, but You pulled me in.From locust years and silent cries—You lifted me and dried my eyes.Final Chorus You are the God of the aftermath,You bring the beauty the fire can’t smash.You take the barren, make it bloom—You fill the empty with holy truth.No shame remains, my past is past—You are the God… of the aftermath.The wasted time, the shattered goal—You make all things whole.ChorusYou are the Healer, the Restorer,You bring back what life devoured.You turn the tears into rivers of grace,You bring the sunshine through darkest days.You don’t rebuild—You resurrect the soul—You make all things whole.Verse 3I stand today not by my might,But by Your mercy’s endless light.My heart once cracked, now fully known—You make all things whole.Chorus You are the Healer, the Restorer,You bring back what life devoured.You turn the tears into rivers of grace,You bring the sunshine through darkest days.You don’t rebuild—You resurrect the soul—You make all things whole.Outro You don’t rebuild… You resurrect the soul…You make all things whole.
