Sometimes I feel so depressed and all is gone.
I wonder what life's for and feel I can't go on.
Oh yes, the feelings are still there,
I feel - hopelessness and despair.
If I could cry, would I wash them out?
My feelings, I mean - I'm lost and full of doubt.
My only hope is in you Lord Jesus, God's own Son,
Will you give me strength to live and carry on?
If I feel something, then I know I am alive,
Why must I go on, for what must I strive?
And yet Lord, if I'm honest, I am afraid to die,
Don't leave me all alone Lord, please hear my cry.
But at the bottom is my God - The Rock,
To my soul's abyss, He holds the lock.
He gave me Jesus, who forever holds the key,
My faith is in Him, He will set me free.
