Dear God
You know right
now
Well, the words
come hard
And I guess
that it’s ok
Because you
never said it
You never said
we wouldn’t suffer
In fact, you
said the opposite
You said that
we would share
We’d share in
your suffering
For the sake of
the cross
For the sake of
your love
For the sake of
the lost
But we are so
fragile
And our hearts
are so weak
We want these
cups to pass
But it’s your
will we seek
So, I ask that
you’ll forgive me
When I
sometimes lie here in my tears
When I am drowning
in my sorrows
When I’m
running from my fears
I thank you for
all you’ve blessed me with
And I know down
deep you’re in control
But it’s so
easy to get distracted
And so easy to
try and usurp your roll
So easy to
become a prodigal
So easy to
become a rebel soul
But I’m making
my way back to you
To the only one
who can make us whole
Dear Lord thank
you for your Spirit
The one who
voices our groanings
The one who
interprets our tears
Who lovingly
intercedes when we fall mute
Because of you
I wake each day
And even when I
have no words
Because of you
I can still speak
So, thank you
God for our Helper
Now when the
words won’t come
I’ll rest
silent and with confidence
Because even
though I am weak
In your
strength I am still heard
