Too Much Sad News


 








Oh Lord, tonight I have no words.
My thoughts, scattered and frayed,
Are drowning in the waves of grief
That will not be allayed.
 
The sorrows rush in ceaselessly,
A never-ending flow
From which I fear I can’t escape
However far I go.
 
I know that these storms, too, will pass,
But right now I feel lost.
In wave on wave of pain and grief,
My poor spirit is tossed.  
 
Lord, hold me close within Your grace
Until once more I stand
Far from the ocean of my grief,
Beyond this shifting sand.
 
You are the rock to which I cling,
The anchor that won’t fail.
I know that Your love is greater
Than this passing travail.
 
I’ll cling to You within this storm
Until You cry, “Be Still”,
Then all my tears, my grief will cease
In answer to Your will.
 
Psalm 107:28-29
Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress. He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed.
