Jesus you are my hope

Another trial in my life…another day filled with questions
Trying to sift through the confusion…looking for the answers
A hope that is real I am trying to grasp…I try to reach but I grab a handful of air…
Trying to hold onto something…Coming away with nothing…Conversing this desertland while my throat is parched…scorched and thirsty for water…

I try to hold onto hope…Jesus you are my hope…I know my hope will never let me go…
My heart gets tired…from crying tears of pain…but I know there is hope out there somewhere…I have trouble getting past my fears…but you bring me near…when I cry out for you to save me…Praying for something to happen…but I get so discouraged sometimes…I forget what I need to ask for…But my life is secure…knowing my Jesus is bigger…than my my circumstances…

Jesus I know you answer my cries…but sometimes it is hard to listen…when you tell me things…that are hard for me to hear…the deeper things in my life…the truth remains the same…regardless of my past…You give me something I can reach for…Jesus you are my hope…when the things of this world seem hopeless…I reach for the light switch…to try to make sense of the darkness…but I lose my step and hold onto your hand as you lead me…

You are my hope…for my future…your life has spoken mercy…over my life…the grace you gave to me on the cross…I am trying to take it in…a love so rich…so full of tenderness…so unconditional that nothing can separate me…from the place you have me…as I reach help me to take your hand…I rest in your never failing promises…as you help me to rest…put me to sleep in your arms…

Inspired by Jason Patchett’s song “Home” off the Album “Are you ready to go”?
