Crying Out For Help

Crying Out For Help
By: Adrielle R. Bollin

So much hurt and pain in hearts
As false reality rips people apart
Beat down spirits and bloodied souls
Raped of dreams, devoid of hope

God we need you but our vision is blurred
We no longer know you because of all we have heard
Confusion rules as unity fades
Nothing seems clear, the world is so gray

Shine your light, oh Father of grace
Pour out your healing, let wisdom embrace
Melt down the walls we built for ourselves
Open our eyes to the wealth of your well

Show us again most patient Lord
Your beautiful ways and righteous sword
Help us to hear your heart crying out
"My people I love you, there is no doubt!"

Wash us clean of all that's untrue
Fill us with truth, fill us with you
Help us to walk in the path you have chosen
To see our life and the pattern you've woven

Give us new eyes to view the world
A bounce in our steps as your design unfurls
Twirl us around in the thrill of your love
Help us remember just what we're made of
