Crisis of Faith

She pounded the cold hard granite and cried Lamenting about the fact that he died Alone on the road and suffering so Where was God then - she really needed to know How could He let her dear sweet husband die? In such a brutal way to make her cry What she didn’t know was that God was there Comforting her husband with loving care He swept away his tears and pain within Forgiving him all of his earthly sins Embracing him with much undying love He carried him home to Heaven above Her faith was slipping between grief and pain It would take some time to feel love again She was always aware God had a plan But felt so hurt that He’d taken her man The days were dark and bleak after he died In her heart she knew she must soon decide To let God back into her mind and heart Or let her great loss tear her soul apart Soon she knelt down in reverent prayer Whispering to God she knew he was there She regained much faith in the coming days And each night she would sing the Lord His praise
