It Hurts To Hear You Cry

Sad. Just sad.
Life seems so unfair.
Not for me. Not JUST me.
It's you too.
I find comfort in that.
We are not alone.
From the famous,
to the self proclaimed nobodies.
From the rich,
to the impoverished.
From the most beautiful,
to the average looking.
We all feel this way.
A kind of sadness that is not for ourselves,
but for someone else.
Someone we love very much.

I ache
My insides burn
Reality seems more bitter than fantasy
What if's and maybe's are no use
The past is past
We live NOW.

But what to do?
What to feel
What to think
What to say...

God, You are indescribably amazing
Such timing as to provide a song
To lay beside this sadness
It brings warmth and comfort...

"Lord I surrender all
To Your strong and faithful hand
In everything
I will give thanks to You
I'll just trust Your perfect plan

When I don't know what to do
I lift my hands
When I don't know what to say
I'll speak Your praise
When I don't know where to go
I'll run to Your throne
When I don't know what to think
I'll stand on Your truth
When I don't know what to do

Lord I surrender all
Though I'll never understand
All the mysteries around me
I'll just trust Your perfect plan

As I bow my knee
Send Your perfect peace
Send Your perfect peace, Lord
As I lift my hands
Let Your healing come
Let Your healing come to me"
