I Come To You, O Lord

Where shall I run away to? I come to You, O Lord! Who can comfort as You do? I come to You, O Lord! People around are scolding me, I come to You, O Lord! Your love alone is holding me, I come to You, O Lord! My pain to whom shall I tell? I come to You, O Lord! Who shall understand me well? I come to You, O Lord! Who else will lift me when I'm blue? I come to You, O Lord! Who else is so faithful and true? I come to You, O Lord! Who shall wipe away my tears? I come to You, O Lord! Who shall conquer all my fears? I come to You, O Lord! Where shall I hide? Where shall I go? I come to You, O Lord! In whom shall I confide my woe? I come to You, O Lord! Your arms are ever open for me, I come to You, O Lord! Let me now rest peacefully in Thee, I come to You, O Lord! ------------------- April 30, 2016

A beautiful lyrical poem, no better place to be than in God's hands, under his loving protection and care. But we must search for Him, look for Him, as reflected in your refrain. Well done, as always!
