If My Hope's In the Lord
If my hope's in the Lord,
I need not be ashamed,
though I stumble and fall,
I might feel like I'm the least of all…
But, He still Loves me…
So, if you're saying to me
He's ashamed of my face,
you won't be getting very far,
cause, you see,
I know just who we are,
we're children of Grace…
But, all of your talking's
been wearing me down,
I'm beginning to doubt
all the Love that I've found,
all the peace and assurance and comfort
in the arms of my God…
Oh,
my God…
…and if you keep on pushing,
soon I'm going to fall over…
keep 'a bending,
and soon I'm going to break…
I don't need any more tears,
I don't have the strength to cry your tears,
my hope's in the Lord,
and I won't let you take that away…
oh, my hope's in the Lord,
please,
don't take that away…
Well, it's hard to express
in words you'll understand,
my world of hidden fears,
all the doubts and hopeless tears
I hide deep inside…
But, unlike you,
He knows where I've been,
He knows my weaknesses,
and He knows my sin,
but, He won't let go
cause He knows
I still want to please Him…
But, all of your talking's
been wearing me down,
I'm beginning to doubt
all the Love that I've found,
all the peace and assurance and comfort
in the arms of my God…
Oh,
my God…
Well, I know that I fail
and I might seem like dirt
before your eyes…
that's why my Father washed me
in His Son's blood…
You don't have to touch me!
I'd rather you didn't!
You can mock my weakness,
when I was stronger
I hide it,
but, my hope's in the Lord,
and I won't let you take that away…
oh, my hope's in the Lord,
please,
please,
don't take that away…
So,
if your hope's in the Lord,
you need not be ashamed,
though you stumble and fall,
you might feel like you're the least of all…
but,
He still Loves you…
He's gonna' keep right on Lovin' you…
remember,
He died for you,
because,
He Loves you.

Amen and Amen
Thank you for this prayer. If we stumble, let us stumble into his arms. He is one that never forsakes us, never hurts us.
The Christian on his knees sees more than the philosopher on tiptoe... quote from the book, Apples of Gold ... G.R. Gibson

A song for dark times when you just need to keep holding on I wish you'd record it so I could download it or somthing and listen to it when I need it.
Maybe i'll just hurry up at learning my guitar then come up with some cords and a tune so I can play it my self,
Woops! wouldnt want to infringe on your rights as the author
PS it great! |
