My Faith

My faith is shaken to the very core, I feel weak and all alone; 
I feel my prayers have all been in vain, I'm about to lose my home. 
Has my God turned his back on me? I feel so sad and weak; 
I've let my problems over whelm me, I no longer my Lord seek. 

My faith is slowly fading, like the day slowly fades to night; 
How can I keep on going? the Lord is hid from my sight. 
My prayers they seem unanswered, I've lost my will to live; 
How can I face tomorrow? Or my prayers to the Lord give? 

For my legs are weak and trembling, I feel I'm about to fall; 
Faith is all I have left, Lord PLEASE hear my call; 
For when I am weak you say I am strong, Lord please hear my prayer; 
My faith is all that I have left, God show me your' still there.
