I feel the loss.
I feel the hurt.
I feel the pain.
~
I can’t breathe.
I can’t think.
I can’t see.
~
When I try
it’s too much
just for me.
~
I feel the tears.
I feel the wound.
I feel the rend.
~
I can’t hold.
I can’t stand.
I can’t mend.
~
Then He comes.
Then He kneels.
Then He smiles.
~
Then He whispers
in my ear
and lifts me up.
~
I feel the light.
I feel the warmth.
I feel the strength.
~
I can speak.
I can grasp.
I can perceive.
~
The burden lifts
from my shoulders
because of Him.
~
I feel the joy
I feel the care
I feel the love.
~
I can laugh.
I can sing.
I can praise.
~
Joy abounds
Where pain once dwelt
because of Him.
