Facing every day

While trying to find a way

Grappling with confusion

Thinking everything’s an illusion

Falling to the knees

Wondering who to please

Longing for a purpose

Before it rises to the surface

Longing to hear a word

That deserves to be heard

Facing the naysayers

As we say our prayers

Wondering what we’ll find

While searching for peace of mind

Looking for affection

As well as protection

While walking down the road

And carrying a heavy load

Searching for our voice

As we try to rejoice

Looking straight ahead

With a real sense of dread

Yet staying on the move

With nothing to prove

Our souls longing to be free

Wondering what’s meant to be

Suddenly gaining a renewed strength

As we talk at length

Finally seeing blessings galore

As God fills us to the core

Removing all doubt

That things will work out

God making everything clear

As He holds us near

Seeing what’s in stone

Finally realizing we’re not alone

Seeing what we’ve been through

Understanding what God can do

Taking one step at a time

While still in our prime

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Beginning a new life

Without a lot of strife

God giving us what we lack

As we see the comeback
