Tossing and turning

My restless soul burning

Looking at the ceiling

My heart and mind reeling

Waiting for the break of day

Trying to accept God’s way

Trying to find some peace

My heart just won’t release

Listening to silence in the air

Trying see if God is there

Longing for an encouraging word

That’s the best I’ve heard

Longing to be free

Wondering what’s meant to be

Trying to close my eyes

Wondering where my purpose lies

Looking for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Trying to remove all doubt

That things will work out

Still looking ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Not feeling well

Wondering where my soul will dwell

Trying to be strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

Wrestling with shame

Longing to remember my name

Struggling with the night

Searching for a guiding light

Trying to rid myself of fear

While holding my faith near

Trying to start a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Wanting to remove every cloud

As I sing out loud

Wondering where to begin

Wondering if my soul will win

Wanting to fill my cup

Needing God to lift me up

Fighting the good fight

During a sleepless night
