You sit alone

Nothing to call your own

You want to stand

Need someone to hold your hand

You look for purpose

While standing at the surface

You long for the love

Coming from heaven above

As you say a prayer

Hoping God is there

It feels warm and pure

It makes you feel secure

You grapple with doubt

Wonder if things will work out

But something gives you strength

As you talk with God at length

You try to smile

Even laugh a little while

You feel the pain

You endure the strain

During the journey

God won’t leave you lonely

You travel far

As you heal every scar

You then hear a word

Unlike any you’ve heard

You long for affection

As well as protection

You look for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

You wonder what to say

How to live every day

You try to let go

Of what you used to know

Not knowing faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

You try to turn around

Search for solid ground

Before seeing what God can do

Then changing your view

Your story will be told

You’ll have something to hold

During the journey

God won’t leave you lonely
