About This Poem

You Will I Praise

Sometimes I wonder if You’re still there
My hope seems gone and I’m in despair
My mind goes to a cold and lonely place
It’s dark and hard to escape that space

My heart is heavy; my face is cast down
Many tears I cry; I feel that I will drown
Then You remind me again whose I am
Saved by the precious blood of the Lamb

Prayers You answer; Promises You keep
You’re my only strength when I’m weak
It’s my own fault when I don’t reach out
Instead I stubbornly wallow in my doubt

What I know is true; what I must learn
Your love is not something I could earn
It’s deeper than even the deepest sea
Beyond what I could imagine it to be

Blood You spilled at the Cross for me
Jesus, my Savior, at Calvary’s Tree
Life that You filled with Your light
No longer doomed to eternal night

When I lose perspective, this I do
I pour out my heart;  I talk to You
My Faithful Friend; present always
My Lord; My King; You will I praise
