Be grace from You that I should ask,
Please lift me up from here!
This place where I now wallow low,
My pity far from clear.
For You alone do feel my heart,
Which aches as failures mount.
And only do I know Your Voice, in darkness when I shout!
Concealed beneath the words be praised
My Lord, above I ask,
The song of angel’s rings so clear
In hearts now still my soul downcast,
And only do I know Your Voice, in darkness when I shout
My spirit held beneath your throne
I rest my head upon your breast
To plead forgiveness for a life
Where once I lived a sordid past,
And only do I know Your Voice, in darkness when I shout
Now as the day draws near my heart,
And sleep it overtakes,
Darkness is a welcomed sight,
When lifting up this soul through grace
And only do I know Your voice, in darkness when I shout!
And only do I know Your Voice, so clear and without doubt.
Johnny – Truly powerful – I can relate to this poem in so many ways. Thank you so much.
It touched me with a sadness almost helplessness yet a sense that all will be well. Very touching. Thank you for sharing my brother
