Cloudy days

Appear in many ways

The moments we’re alone

Searching for what’s in stone

Moments we send a prayer

Wondering if God is there

Moments we search for peace

The heart won’t release

Days we seem to fear

Not knowing God is near

Moments we wonder who we are

While reaching for a star

Moments we seem to take

Before we see the memories we’ll make

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

On cloudy days

We wonder where time goes

Before we learn what God knows

We learn to sit still

While we accept God’s will

We get stronger

As our days get longer

We search for affection

As well as protection

We look at what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

We try to rest

After every test

We learn lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

We search every heart

Where everything should start

We struggle with doubt

While God works things out

We search the soul

For what will make it whole

We follow a light

That shines day and night

While changing our ways

On cloudy days
