My soul is a parched land
waiting for rain to pour down
i cry without tears in my eyes
my heart is about to flatline
I want to run but I can only crawl
longing to touch that thread of hope
my flesh is full of sharp thorns
the winter nights have been long
Oh my Lord, my everlasting God
My faith sees you no matter what
I know that you are always around
You keep watching over my life
This is just a day of sorrow
I receive comfort from your words
there will be strength tomorrow
deep within the pain, I rejoice
~ Marianne S.
