Groping Hands

I wander in darkness

Endless night

I’m dreaming of morning

A ray of light

But the mist creeps ever near

The daytime’s forgotten

I can’t see

So long ere a sunrise

Sets me free

Now I’m overcome with fear

I wonder where you are

I’m alone

It’s long since you left me

On my own

The dim path I cannot find

In bitter sleep I’m dreaming

I can’t wake

Reality--no longer

Can it take

This aching pain that is mine

Hopelessness won’t leave me

Sorrow stays

I’m lost, my soul destroyed

Fear did raze

Tearless weeping never ends

Struggling, reaching out

Groping hands

Reach back and pull me up

To better lands

On you happiness depends

Love and Mercy

Love and Mercy

He listened to me cry that night

I know He felt my pain

He always knows just how to help

That's why He sent the rain

He knows how long to let us hurt

Though painful it may be

We must keep waiting faithfully

For He will set us free

All things are within His reach

There's nothing He can't do

His love and mercy give us life

I know this is true
