Strengthen Me Lord

On days like this when I feel so blue

I sit alone and I talk with you

I feel as if my strength has diminished

I have nothing else to give I'm ready to end it 

feeling broken inside at times 

I wish I could run and hide

from all the pain and everyday troubles

I just want to be happy in this life

I am trying to stay humble

Lord please guide me and give me strength 

when I feel I have no more nothing left to go on

I feel like this is the end of lifes tour

Please hold my hand and show me way

I have faith in you lord I know I will see a brighter day.
