My Heart's Song

Pain exist in two worlds of sorrow
I cry forever not to exist
Everything to go black
Nothing to be missed

Lord I am tired
Don't you see
I feel the pain and misery
I want to be free
I lift up my eyes to thee
From Thee comes my help

My heart is drowning
In sorrow
No one to save me,
Help lift me up
Everyone has closed eyes
No one to help me cry

They don't understand
I don't know how to explain
I need someone to listen
To help ease the pain

Sometimes, too weak to fight
Tired of fighting
I am not giving up,
Just trying to rest
Hopefully I want rust
Needing shelter from the storm
Please be my shelter

Right now don't even know how to stand up.
Instead I can only kneel
Feeling lost
Helpless, and alone
Please help me to feel alive again
With joy; and a reason to live
Making my smile  like sunshine
Warm and friendly

Take away the dark side
Leave nothing bad behind
Giving me peace.
Let depression leave

Where is this nothingness?
Where did it come from?
Take it away
Give purpose
Allow me to stay,
To pray
My son needs me

Fulfilling my purpose for whatever you sent
Even though I can't see it now
I Know that it's real
You are real
You give me hope
My God alone can save me
In Jesus  name I pray
Amen
