Help Me Up
Weak, groping, grasping,

Trying to understand,

I come to You for answers,

For only You have them;

Too brokenhearted and hurting

To say the words

That are hidden in my heart,

But I know You already know them.

Help me to understand

And stop the pain.

My heart is bruised

And won't stop aching.

Yesterday I knew happiness and laughter;

Today the rain falls on my doorstep

And I have lost my way.

Reach out and heal my broken heart,

As only You can.

Return to me the peace that I once felt

And forgive me for giving in to shadows--

Take them away;

I can't, I don't have strength today.

Forgive me and help me up

So I can stand

Where I once stood

And smile again.
