"A Psalm"
Because You chose to live among us...
I know You’re my reason to live.
Because you forgave those that hurt You...
I know I should forgive just the same.
Because You so terribly suffered...
I know I can stand any pain.
Because I know You love me...
I can rise through all my shame.
Because You are my Christ...
I know I am not alone.
But, why did You leave us here in this hell?
Only You could ever know.
Please Jesus, help me...
Or take me from this evil place.
Hold me in Your loving arms...
Tears of joy streaming down my face.
My agony is unbearable
I cry for relief, but...
Your Word tells me You’re the only way.
I have so embraced and loved You.
So, why do I still have to pay…..
with my blood and endless tears?
Am I not to feel betrayed?
In Your torture, You said to Your Father...
“Father, why have you have forsaken me?”
Christ Jesus, my question is the very same.....
