Why do we feel so downcast
And Forsaken by the Lord
The price HE paid upon the cross
Was more than we can afford
HIS back is never turned from you
HE'S standing at y our side
HE'S waiting for you to say
"Come LORD be my guide"
For your journey is so treacherous
You cannot find your way
Come inside me Lord and take
Residence in me today
Take away my burdens, my sorrow and my pain
Help us to realize that all we lose if really for our gain
When we cast our cares upon YOU and we lay down all we have
We'll realize worldy things are temporal, Only CHRIST will last
Cause us to fall on our knees
And truly to repent
Help us to thank YOU for
All the provisions YOU sent
May our spiritual blinders
Be removed so at last we can finally see
The love YOU have for us is everlasting
And best of all its free!
