My heart aches at the anguish
that fills another's being
Coping in this crazy world where
only hate can be seen
The drunk who beats upon his
vulnerable wife
The sick mind who aims to tarnish
a childs life
The bully who preys on the timid
and week
The homeless not knowing what it
is they truly seek
The innocent tortured simply for
the sake of another's pleasure
The lost delving in their own
counterfeit measure
The loss of a loved one through
some sort of disease
Accidents consuming lives with
effortless ease
Corruption in the government followed
by inadequate leadership
With deceived preference to rally
in false worship
So on and so on it goes you hear it
on the news everyday
Making it real hard to keep fear
at bay
At times Dad its difficult to merely
be living
As the depressed mind loses something
to believe in
I pray for courage to look ahead and
run the race
Never to lose focus until I get to see
Your face
Its all too simple getting lost in the tears
falling from the clouded sky
When you're desperately wishing for
the day to hurry on by
I pray Dad keep me grounded by
making the right choices
To discern the truth against lies
without echoed voices
My faith is in You prevent this soul
from falling apart
Help me I pray to feel the Son shine
within my heart
I trust in You to fill the crevices of
broken dreams
Weathering the storms of tidewater
streams
Without You I am like that of a dead
star void of gas
Floating about the galaxy within its
darkened mass
Thank You for never leaving my
side
Always walking beside me step by
step stride for stride
Love and protect all that is so very
dear to me
My Father My God who breathes
The Winds Of Liberty...
