MY ROCK

when one feels like there is nothing left to help you stand....

     MY ROCK

I feel myself falling

Tumbling headlong to a place I don’t want to go

Head over heels, my heart starts calling,

Father please say it isn’t so!

I clutch at the light that is you dear Lord,

Clinging to the only hope that is there,

And that is you who won’t let me fail

 You will lift me from the dark and out of the snares,

Out of the misery and this living hell

And fold me in your loving embrace.

You soothe the war inside of my mind

Help me to stand strong in faith

And let me know that your peace is also mine.

I love you Lord with all my heart

With all my soul and being

But when I feel weak and this world tries to take me apart;

And when I find myself sinking, you gently remind me:

 

Please don’t lose heart

"I Am the Rock of Ages, so Stand!"

When there seems to be no ground beneath me,

And when I feel I am sinking in dark quicksand:

You come and rescue me because you are all that ever will be

My Rescue! My Foundation and the Great I AM!

 I live for you; and every breath I take is because of you!

You calm the storms when they rage against me! 

Yes! You keep me Safe when I stay close to you!

Father God, I will praise you in this age and forever. 

Yes! You really do Love me! Peace!  ~Selah~
