Moments Like These

    My God
      In this moment
        I am afraid!
        I see only darkness.
        I feel unsafe.
        I tremble with fear.
    My God
      In this moment
        I am lost!
        I see no hope.
        I feel abandoned.
        I cannot find the way.
    My God
      In this moment
        I am anxious!
        I see confusion around me.
        I feel overwhelmed.
        I can barely breathe.

    My God
      In this moment
        I cry out to you!
        I see your light.
        I feel your presence.
        I hear your voice.

    My child
      In moments like these
        Come to me!
        Take my yoke upon you.
        Learn from me.
        I will give you rest.

    My God
      In this moment
        I am glad!
        I see your glory.
        I feel your love.
        I know your peace.
