So here I am as if crushed;
pressed on all sides by
such massive grief
which rolls mightily o'er my soul,
& forces thousands of tears
to lunge out from my eyes.
I don't think I have ever felt before
the measure of pain I do
in these days.
I am devastated.
& my mourning seems to multiply day by day.
Where is gladness today?
Where is joy?
Have they indeed forsaken me?
My hope falters greatly.
My faith is beaten down
& kicked over with dirt.
I am in ashes & bitter is my weeping.
Where shall I go & what can I do,
what else but wait for You?
For You have the words of life
& in Your hand there is healing.
O, speak the word
& lay Your hand on me.
Please bring times of refreshing & restore to me great joyous smiles.
