My heart

I don't know what the future holds
in the coming hours days and months
but I know I've to face it in whole
no matter what the consequence is

My soul is wounded and afflicted
the burden of my sins I can't bear
my heart is broken within me
and my soul is thirsty beyond repair

Tried and tried to break free
and my tears have run dried
oh how I moan in despair
crying for a God who cares

but oh Lord who art in heaven
hear the cry of my desperate heart
hold me close in your arms
as the waves of uncertainity draws near

let every gloom, depression and frustration fade
for the Lord my God is here with me
clinging unto His word with everything
not leaving anything to the hands of fate

Oh whom have I trusted but You
to deliver and save from this doom
strength and courage are found in You
and You alone are my resting place

Griefs and shame You've bore long ago
in the twilight of an ending age
redemption is found in You alone
now Your blood runs through my vein

And my heart burns evermore for You
consume with a passion for Your name
But unless You come and lift
I'll never make it through the night
