We’ve prayed consistently

Stayed together faithfully

We’ve endured a great deal

Faced moments that are real

We’ve seen what’s by design

Wondered if everything is fine

We’ve prayed for strength

While talking to God at length

We’ve hung on the word

We’ve always heard

We’ve longed for affection

As well as protection

We’ve searched our hearts

To see where love starts

We’ve grappled with doubt

That things will work out

We’ve wanted every soul

To be made whole

We’ve looked ahead

While filled with dread

We’ve wanted to smile

Even laugh a little while

Before changing our ways

Then seeing better days

We’ve searched for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We’ve been set aside

While searching for a guide

We’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

We’ve longed for a home

Where our souls can roam

We’ve looked at what we know

Wondered how we can grow

We’ve longed to see

What’s truly meant to be

We’ve wanted a journey

Meant for us only

We’ve wondered what’s for us

Wondered who to trust

We’ve wanted a light

To follow day and night

We’ve tried to turn around

Searched for solid ground

Until we changed our ways

Then saw better days
