When
days were full of dark despair
And no
one else could see me through,
I
couldn’t find you anywhere;
I
needed You! I needed You!
When
I cried out in utter pain
And
begged You to come rescue me,
The
dark clouds only brought more rain;
Torrential
as the raging sea.
For
days I lingered in this way
Devoid
of warmth and love,
But
then You sent a shining ray
Directly
from above.
“O’ye
of little faith,” I heard
In soft
familiar tones
“How
can you doubt my loving word?
You
never are alone!
Now
rest your weary soul, my dear
And in
this state abide,
Lay
down your burdens, do not fear
I’m
always by your side!”
