From a Broken Heart
This ache I feel tonight
Is tossing me aside.
The hurt I have to face-
I cannot find a brace.
The darkness churns anew,
Inhibits all I do.
The silver lining fades,
Against the sharpened blade.
The night is falling fast,
Brings out the shattered past.
I fall into despair,
The shadows darken there.
The serpent wins again,
My heart is rent in twain.
I spiral down the hole
That opened in my soul.
I hit the bottom now,
The pain inside allow.
The treason of my heart
Begins the fall apart.
While wading through the rough,
How can I say enough?
My strength is all but gone,
I'm searching for the dawn.
He tries to reach to me,
And yet I still do flee.
I know His Healing Hand,
He's calling me to stand.
He promises His love
Sent down from up above,
If I will but receive-
Remember to believe.
I fall upon my knees
To put my fears at ease.
The Spirit enters in
To calm the storm within.
Dearest child, I am here.
Again let go of fear.
I have not walked away,
I'm keeping winds at bay.
As I mend thy broken wing,
I can take away the sting.
Turn to me in time of need
And remember me I plead.
Please let me in to heal
As thou doth try to feel.
Thy hurt inside is great,
But still it can abate.
Don't forget I love thee still,
I will help thee climb the hill.
Reach up to take my arm,
I'll keep thee safe from harm.
Trust in me to make thee strong,
I will carry thee along.
From these wounds will come a time-
Joy and happiness sublime.
Dear child, have some faith,
I come with love unfeigned.
I will not let thee down-
I will be here, all around.
