When the day wears on, disturbed emotions it brings
When time trickles in, the cords of melancholy it sings
When the seconds become heavier, as the moment it passes
When life mocks you, its endless farces
A troubled spirit, a journey down trodden
Fate has it, it seems, all misfortune begotten
Tears roll down, your forever companion,
A lonely one, a lonely daughter of
Temptation prowls on, its pleasures so fair
Sin dances her finest, twirls a beguiling lair
Chanting in melody, charming seduction
O’ to give in, fall into her slow persuasion
A suffocated body, emotions welled up
Desperate to break free, give up this cup
Tear down my mind, body and soul
I am before Thee, a drained out begging bowl
Gentle a glance, gaze down upon me
Withered am I, unheard moan, a distressed plea
Tears no more, there’s only so much
Your Word, Your promise, a feeble hand efforts to touch
Sent down Your angels, in tender care lifted me
Gathered together, placed safely in the bosom of Thee
Sight the Cross, pinned to it all my sin, grief and cry
The world’s was taken over, what was I?
His miracle He calls, If you were the only one
On the rough tree, I’d do for you, all that was done
Long before time began, I have loved you dear
Borne within Myself, I have cried your every tear
Your love for me is eternal, more than my life can behold
Your moments planned for me, in Your likeness to mould
Sheltered and protected, from life’s trial & strife
Your promise never to forsake, Your love has kept me.
