Trusting In Your Light

 

A broken heart, a broken world,
And nothing I can do
To make it any better, Lord,
Except give it to You.
 
I see some light break through the dark,
But clouds come rushing in
To block my view and steal my hope
That light will ever win.
 
Yet, even in times of despair,
When all that I cling to
Is Your promise that You are near,
That promise remains true.
 
That’s why I gave all of my fears,
My tears and my despair
To You, Lord, in full trust and faith,
You heard me and my prayer.
 
You knitted up my broken heart,
And offered me a view
Of the unending light of life
That’s burning bright in You.
 
You brushed aside the cloudy night
To give me a brief peak
Of what lies beyond these dark days.
Yours is the Light I seek.
 
Let this world do all that it can
To block You from my sight,
But I’ll hold to the truth I’ve seen;
Your Light is shining bright.
 
John 1:5
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
 
Psalm 97:11
Light shines on the righteous and joy on the upright in heart.
