I come to You empty handed.
Stubborn. Irate,
full of hate,
doubting You'll relate and
I am tired.
My body aches desperately,
and I want you to put
Your hand on my heart,
so far apart from peace
and comfort.
I can't hear You.
Where are You?
Why can't I hear Your voice?
Are you even speaking?
My motivation is leaking slowly
And no one knows me
or what I've been seeking.
My childish desires are peeking through,
I'm a child, and I've lost You.
I don't want to be here,
left alone screaming
"Don't leave me here!"
There is so much to fear,
I want You to appear and save me
from these tempting spiders
crawling so hungrily on my skin.
Save me again so I can begin
to loosen my grasp on repetitive sin.
How tired have I previously been?
Just save me,
save me
from this grave I'm in,
I haven't been brave.
But You were
and are
the greatest by far
and I need Your strength.
I'm so lost in the dark,
send Your life-giving spark
And save me.
