I Stand Here Still
I stand here still
against my will
because Grief I am still in today
drowning in it still,
I can not left up my arms
to comb my hair
Grief is thick in the air,
But what do I care
I can see a light a head
as I fight not to get
back in bed,
God light I see
I am not blind
as I try to unwind
from my Grief,
I stand still
against my will
because Grief I am still into today
holding me against my will
I need to drink more water today
or try to eat food
God light I see
his love will feed me,
as I get down on my knees
Help me Lord please,
no phone calls please
I not in the mood today
just go away,
I stand still
against my will
because Grief I am still into today
holding me against my will
I will open up my Bible
and read the book of Mathews
with tears rolling down my cheek
help from God I do seek
his words help take me out
of my Grief time and put me
into a better state of mind,
As I stand still
against my will
because Grief I am still into today.
