Yearning for hope shadows her thoughts
Blazing through her heart and soul
Her stomach is all tied up in knots
She longs for love that will make her whole
Grief constricts her arid throat with worry
Life has given her so much to contend with
Will God forgive the anger and fury?
She wonders if true love is only a myth
Black sorrow beckons to her gloomy plans
Whispering despair instead of compassion
The empty church she takes in as she scans
Her clammy skin has all but changed to ashen
Breaths of mourning curse her thoughts of hope
Brilliant light seems to pour from the pews
Will she ever find a sincerely good way to cope?
Could this be the time when she will choose?
Finally, her heart gives in to the radiant joy
Flaming across the church with brilliant poise
Her heart is filled with a love nothing can destroy
Grace has saved her soul from the hate filled noise
