Frustrated but faithful christian |
Every night I pray I lay alone in the darkness and pray I pray to be healed of my pain I pray to be freed from my past I pray to be ridden of my misery But I never am I pray loudly and faithfully And am answered by a silent God While I openly express my faith in God I am ignored I ask God to take away my trials And he puts more upon me I ask God to relieve my pain And I am left to languish I ask God for love And he leaves me all alone I ask God to bring me a partner Instead, he allows my heart to be shattered I am a frustrated christian Yet I am a faithful christian I am due for a miracle And God is always on time An arrow must be pulled back before shooting forward The night must get darkest before morning The valley must get to it's deepest before the mountain And I must be knocked lower than I've ever been before I can stand the tallest I will ever stand Every night I pray I lay in the darkness, not alone, but with God, and pray I pray to be healed of my pain I pray to be freed from my past I pray to be ridden of my misery And I will be soon I pray loudly and faithfully And am answered by a silent, but busy God |
