God, Are You There

God, are you there?

Are you there to hear what I am saying?	
My heart is falling apart with my mind doing the slaying.

When I call to you I do not hear your reply.
Is there something blocking the reception in the spiritual sky?

My thoughts run random I need some control.
God, please rescue me, help me up out of this hole.

I know what I want to happen in the future.
Now I am willing to let you paint that picture.

I hope she is somewhere in your art for me.
But your will be done for your glory.

The present seems so dark and unbearable.
With your guidance and strength I find myself useful.

Pull down my blinders that block what I can’t see.
Help me focus on the gifts you set for me.

God, are you there?
