Lord

Lord, why do I feel this hurt day in and day out, when all I want to do is praise You with a shout.

You suffered the cross for me and were risen, But this depression keeps me trapped in a private prison,

Seems Satan wants me to doubt your word, He wants me to forget all I have heard.

I don't understand why things go so wrong, And why sometimes I'm just not that strong.

My trials seem so hard to get through, But I know I'd be completely lost if not for You.

Better days are ahead I've heard it said, But this hurt seems to play over and over in my head.

Sometimes there's no escape from the pain, Even though I know you will send the sunshine after the rain.

Lord fill my heart with a stronger faith and a deeper walk with You, I need You to hold my hand and help me through.

I can't do it on my own, I need Your help to forget about this hurt I've known.

Your love shines the light to lighten my path, Lord always keep me strong so I will never suffer Your wrath.

Your love is all I need to make it through this day, And tomorrow I know You'll still be there to help me along my way.
