Whisper Words of Wisdom

When your heart has been broken and your tears don't seem to dry
This in the words spoken from who had been the apple of your eye
In falling back against the ropes looking for a helping hand
Losing the last of all hopes in knowing they will never understand

Running to Our Dear Lord's Side and cuddling up in His Hand
Nothing from Him can I hide for there is no pain He does not understand
And as He finally dries those eyes standing you up on your two feet
Separating truth from lies, your own love from the constant deciept

Just looking up at the daunting task and seeing how far we come
No longer able to mask that all my feelings have become numb
But I am stronger than that, for the Lord has given me that Gift
And as I laid on that mat Jesus came along and gave me a lift

 He said child these are not My Words spoken but words of hate
Such a Spirit rarely awoken which along with carries such a weight
Know My Love is true and will never leave from within you
Be, as I, gentle in what you do so to your own self you will remain true.

I like how you carry through the image of being in the ring from verse one (“falling back... “) to verse two (“standing you up”) to verse three (“looking up” “laid on that mat).
