River of Pain

Just the total woe of complete depression
That I don't know must be my confession
But those of you who this may define
Know it's true and and claim it as mine

How it came about the whole entire story
Such a bitter bout when not seeing God's Glory
Each day is another test and so ready to fail
With no time to rest you've become so frail

With such little Light there can be only darkness
As nothing really feels right it all feels like a mess
With no other choice all avenues having been tried
Maybe it's time to just rejoice in those tears you cried

You cannot carry this load no not all alone 
It's too tough a road when there is no Light shown
Give Jesus this cross just put it all in His Hands
He knows your loss and He truly understands

A river I drowned in so many times... Vincent, I know Jesus is there to take my hand, when I can't find my way... No questions asked... love this...LINDA
