Where are You, Oh Lord?
Why have You hidden Your Face
From me?
Why can’t I feel You near?
Have You forsaken me,
To wallow in my pain?
Oh, how my heart suffers!
How my heart is breaking!
How I need You near!
How I need to see Your face,
Oh Lord!
Protect me,
From the storms that surround me!
Pour Your sweet Grace onto my soul!
For Your Grace, Oh Lord,
Is like a sweet salve, that heals a broken heart!
Have mercy upon me, Oh Lord,
For the wind thrashes all around me!
Calm the storms
That surround me!
For the waves of the sea roll around me
As if they were about to devour
My soul!
My heart is breaking, Oh Lord.
I need you near.
I feel as if I am sinking into the deepest sea.
I cry out:
“Jesus save me! For I am drowning in my sorrow!”
I hear Your voice, Oh Lord!
“Give me your hand, my Child,” You say.
I open my eyes and reach out to You!
You give me your hand,
And rescue me from the depths of the Sea’s of Sorrow.
You hold me tightly and encircle me about with the arms of Your Love.
You wipe away my tears,
As you say:
“It’s alright my Child.
I am here.
I will not leave you.
I will not forsake you.
But I will always be near you.
For you see, my Child,
My Father gave you to Me.
I live in your heart, dear one.
You belong to me.
No one can ever snatch you
Away from me.
I will heal your broken heart, dear one.
I am always here.
Just Come, my Child, and lean on me,
For I will give you rest.”
