Daily Bread

I feel so lost When I’m away From your presence Gone days Lost days Without thanksgiving With bowed head I feel so lost When I stray Through the world Without Your words Of wisdom To guide me Then I suffer Anxiety Knowing I’m not fighting Against weapons Of this world I feel so lost When I’m apart Never telling you The desires Of my heart Then I despise Confusion Even though it’s inevitable Because I have no direction I haven’t heard Your message In some time Thinking I have more time To retreat From the battlefield Alone Go back And put on The spirit of the Lord My armor And my sword To fight another day But without My marching orders To show me the way I become apprehensive In this world, So sinful I feel so lost That I suffer withdrawal But He never writes me off No matter how hard I stumble His love so soft Breaks my fall He removes the guilt I suffer From my ignorance False Independence I’m dependant on him Forever That is why I bow My head And receive My daily bread
