Reading: Lamentations 3; Psalm 29
My soul is void of peace;
I have forgotten what joy is.
All my strength has failed me;
My hope has disappeared.
I thought it was surely over;
But I found myself still there.
My bones they ache within me;
And my soul is in despair.
But I remember how you love me;
That you are always there.
Your faithfulness is lasting,
And with me ’til the end.
Each day dawns with new hope;
Your deliverance is near.
In you will I find satisfaction;
In your name alone will I rest.
Your name, it is unchanging;
My hope is not in vain.
The walls close in around me;
But my trust they cannot take.
Grayson Pope
