God and I

Friend That Sticketh Closer Than A Brother

Drowning in my tears I sat lonely and helpless
Wondering the purpose of it all
The sky falling down
It's vastness crushing my bones
Suffocated by inconceivable doubt
Questioning my very purpose
Pain that kills the spirit
That tortures the heart
Leaving the mind weary
And body longing for death.

His strength is made perfect in weakness
He called unto me
True love I seek died in my place
A loyal friend Who never strays He came to  me
He so close never leaves my side
Resides within me close as it gets
Nurturing I need to grow is He for I come from

Said to me, ' I made you, I knew you , I saw you, as I saw Nathaniel under a fig tree, as I saw Hagar in the wilderness.
You are not alone. I slew 185000 men for Israel , parted the Red Sea for her.
For those who love Me , for those who put trust in Me , I Am , and I will never change.'

He gave me strength to rise
From my self-pity
Gave me a daring spirit
To move on march on go on
To stare the devil in the eye and declare,
' I will not die but live to declare the works of the Lord. To be silent and still for He
Who is in me is greater than He of this world.'
No friend greater than one who lifts you up
For a friend in need is a friend indeed.
