  The Painful Journey

I gave my love, gave all I had.
In him, I put my trust.
But now my hope and all my dreams
Ride the wind as dust.

His promise to love me till the end
Meant nothing when he strayed.
He wouldn't stop even though
He saw the price I paid.

Into his eyes, I would gaze deep.
I saw that love was there.
The love's now gone, blue ice remains.
Why does my heart still care?

I pray for him, I really do.
I pray that he will find
The love and joy and happiness
That's the strong and lasting kind.

So where am I, how do I feel?
I don't know where to start.
My life, my world, my future
Were cruelly, torn apart.

My heart, it weeps in endless pain
For now I am alone.
Oh my Lord, please tell me why
I cannot just come home.

I've struggled hard to do what's right.
How much is left to do?
How much longer must I wait
Till I come home to You.

My will to live has disappeared.
I've come to dread each day.
At night, I lie in bed and wait
For my soul to pass away.

Dear Lord, please heal me, be my strength.
Let me find some rest.
Take charge of my grieving life
And do for me what's best.

Oh Lord, I'm broken, smashed to bits.
Please walk by my side.
Love me gently day and night,
Always be my guide.

In God above, I place my trust.
He'll guard my tender heart.
His love is faithful, unlike man's.
From Him, I'll never part.

Oh Father, look at all that hurt.
Please don't turn Your face.
Let you mercy ever flow.
Bless them with your grace.

Oh wounded souls, lift up your eyes.
Look to God above..
He'll light your path and take your pain
And fill you with his love.

My days are quiet, I've found peace.
I sleep now, through the night.
I know that when I finally die
I'll wake in God's pure light.
