In the Depths

In the darkest times
my soul cries out to You
When I can't
my soul sings Your praises
You are there
when I cry
You lift me up
when broken
You hear my pleas
You attend my wounds
and wipe my tears
I know You're here
I feel Your presence
even in the dark
Your light shines in my heart
my thoughts/ my feelings
may be angry
may be confused
try to turn bitter
but Your pull is there
Your hand
Your urging
deep
down
in
my
soul
YOUR TRUTH
still stands
YOUR WORD
still prevails
YOU, FATHER
YOU, JESUS
YOU, SWEET SPIRIT
are always there
You lift me
I soar
even when
I don't see
I don't feel
but I know
You carry
when I can't go on
You give me strength
I know
somehow
I know
deep
down
in
my
soul
I know
I am Yours
