The other night was a night of unceasing prayer. Between praying sessions, I was writing, which isn't all that rare, however things were just flowing at this moment, and about who or what specifically? I have no idea...here is the result.
A Modern Day Psalm
Why, why, why is there so much pain?
Why do people tell me of sunshine yet all i feel is rain?
Why Now? Why this? Why does it have to be so hard?
-God you are greater, and in this I have Hope-
But why does it sometimes have to be so difficult to cope?
Why does it have to hurt so much?
Why is it so hard sometimes to hear your voice, feel your touch?
-Lord, you are greater and I am here, I move on with your strength, not my fear-
Turn off the music, but the notes still play in my head
Close the book, but my mind still sees the words I just read
I try not to think, but just then a thousand more thoughts come flooding in
I try to sleep, have peace, to rest, but all I get is darkness and silence at best
I am here, I am here
Speak, I am listening
Or am I?
Have you been speaking all along and that's what I've been missing?
Have I drifted that far away? Have I completely lost touch?
Is there nothing left to say?
Have I fallen that much?
NO! NO!
I am here, I am here
Speak! God, everlasting through the years
You are Lord, Redeemer, Savior over all
I am here, I am here
I am waiting on your call
There is a song I recorded of this...if you want to check it out...
