my song

*Edited to add: Shortly after...within 10 minutes or so of posting this...Bill came home with the above news. Maybe it's another test.

My soul cries out to you oh Lord. You seem so silent. I can't seem to hear your voice. What is it that you want? What do you want from me? I am your servant. I want to be used. But yet you remain silent. I know you are there...but I don't feel it. Help me to be still and know that you are God...not to get anxious. My hope is in you Oh Lord. I trust in you even when I cannot hear or see or feel. I Know you have a plan. Thank you that you give peace that passes all understanding. Thank you Lord for your grace and love to me. I don't know why my heart is sad. I feel guilty about it. I know you provide...I know that you do above and beyond all that we can imagine. So why do I give in to discouragement at times? Help me to have more faith. Oh God I need you...I feel so weak. I need your strength. I pray that our family would be a testimony for you. I am laying it all down at your feet Lord...I need your rest. Help me to walk in your light and your truth. My soul yearns to be with you. I love you my Abba my God.


Oh Lord I'm weak
Oh Lord I'm frail
Oh Lord I can't seem
To get up on my own

I'm weary of striving
I'm loosing hope fast
I'm fighting to let go
of your loving hand

Chorus,
Lord lift me up to see you face
To the place where I can rest
Hold me in your arms secure and tight
I know you'll never let me go
No matter how much I might fight
Oh your loving hand is always over me

My heart is anxious
All tied up in knots
Cause I want to know
What you've planned or me

I'm tired of trying
My heart is so sick
Oh Lord please lift
Lift me up once again

Chorus,
Lord lift me up to see you face
To the place where I can rest
Hold me in your arms secure and tight
I know you'll never let me go
No matter how much I might fight
Oh your loving hand is always over me
Words and music by Me (March 7, 1999)

Psalm 62:5-8
My soul, wait in silence for God only,
For my hope is from Him.
He only is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
On God my salvation and my glory rest;
The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.
Trust in Him at all times, O people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah.
