Every morning, I am so broken.
My heart heaves with dry veins.
My tears reliving every word spoken,
every unanswered question.
What have I done? Why have they forsaken me?
In the depths of hell, I am alone.
But I am not alone.
I recall the psalms of David,
If I ascend up into Heaven, thou art there:
if I make my bed in hell, behold,
thou art there.
Thou I cannot understand how man can be so cruel,
I will try not to understand,
for that would give me the knowledge to be so also.
I will keep my gaze up on you Lord,
for you are my shelter when my soul is downcast.
When I can bear it no more Lord,
your mercy tells me to hold on,
and you speak to me Lord.
Your child weeps and cries out loudly,
but the tears turn into joyful surrender.
For a moment I feel no pain,
because your arms shelter me.
You wrap your child up so tightly,
comforting my soul.
I praise your Holy Name,
and I trust in you Lord.
Your trust Lord will never doubt.
Your trust Lord will never accuse me.
Your trust Lord will never make me wonder.
Your trust Lord will always be my stronghold.
Oh Lord, I praise your Holy Name,
I am blessed by your trials Lord,
because they bring me closer to You Lord.
I praise your Name, Oh Lord,
I praise your Holy Name and give thanks,
for never letting me go Lord.
My heart beats for you Oh Lord.
My heart desires and thirst for your will,
and You overflow my heart with comfort.
I will walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
because I know you will be with me Oh Lord.
In your Holy Name, Amen.
