Will you hear me?

God

Will you hear me God?

Will you listen to one who scoffs at the sacrifice of your son?

Would you turn your ear to one who would believe a lie?

God, do you hear my cry?

I don’t have words to express the pain that I feel

I only know that you promised to carry me through these times.
Where are you?
I’ve stood on the promise that you will never leave nor forsake me.

Why am I standing alone?

Not even standing

Stumbling on my face

Desperately trying

To hold on to your grace

Slipping

Clawing

Crying for help.

Out of breath I stop to regain my ground

I look around

Nothing

Reaching out for anything to tell me that I matter

My soul is crying out for the touch of the Master.

God I need you.

Without you I am nothing.

There is no purpose

No joy to this life

I’m sinking,

Drowning

Under waves of this world’s storms.

Believing the lies that

I am unloved

Uncared for

Worthless.

But you

Sent your son as a baby

To walk this road to Calvary.

He bled and died in atonement for me.

I could never achieve righteousness on my own

You sent your son Jesus to lead me to your throne.

But will you hear me now God?

Will you hear my cries now?

At your feet do I humbly bow before you

With nothing to offer

but broken pieces of a filthy life.

Will you hear my plea Lord and hold me close?

Even youths grow weary.

Raise me up on wings like eagles

And let me rest securely again

In you.
