> It's been one of those day,
> Days that cuase me to ask why?
> One of those day,
> When my eyes want to cry,
> One of those days,
> When joy seems to pass me by,
>
> They say it is darkest,
> Just before the dawn,
> But just how long does the night go on,
> I am surrounded,
> By questions and fears,
> The what-ifs,
> And then-whats?
> I want to disappear,
>
> What words can I say?
> What can I pray?
> To stop the endless circle of anxiety,
> I whisper His name,
> It's all I know to do,
> I call on a strength,
> Larger than mine,
> On a peace that can't be defined,
> On faith that can't be seen,
>
> And in a second,
> I am surrounded,
> By songs of old,
> Reminding me of love that never ceases,
> Of the peace that comes as I learn to release
> All of this,
> The God of creation,
> Knows my name,
> He is acquainted with my situation,
> His promise is faithful and true,
> Never, never,
> Will I leave you,
> You'll never be alone,
> You belong with me,
> You've a place to call home,
> You can not see life's finished picture,
> But I hae a perfect view,
> And it is by my strength that you will make it through
> I've seen your tears at midnight,
> You are always in my sight,
> I've come to bring you peace,
> You weren't meant to carry all that on your own,
> I give rest, and relief
>
> No darkness can stand,
> No fear can grow,
> When  love is present,
> And I know,
> God is in control,
> I don't have to know the answers!
