Soul Searching

Looking at my heart

To see where to start

Saying a silent prayer

As I see God standing there

Wondering what’s real

What my heart can’t conceal

Wondering about my mission

Trying to clear my vision

Trying to stand

As God holds my hand

Trying to ignore the noise

Trying to show some poise

Thinking of the journey

Meant for me only

Searching for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Looking for my purpose

While standing at the surface

Wondering how to live

Wondering how to give

Wanting to love

Just like heaven above

Longing for a word

Unlike any I’ve heard

Searching for solid ground

Wondering what I’ve found

Trying to be strong

Thinking of right and wrong

Longing for God’s affection

Needing His protection

Searching for a light

I can follow day and night

Wanting a hand to hold

Wanting my story to be told

Looking at the past

Wanting to make the moment last

Grappling with doubt

Wanting things to work out

Looking at my empty cup

Trying to lift myself up

Looking straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing God is working for sure

Giving me something pure

He’ll keep working

As I’m soul searching
