The Cry He Hears

Love me, Lord, when shadows fall,

And doubt creeps in to cloud my day.

Love me, Lord, when I lose my way,

And on Your name I fail to call.

Love me, Lord, not for what I do,

For my best deeds are stained and worn.

Love me, Lord, though my heart is torn,

Just because You love me, true.

Love me, Lord, when I cannot feel,

When prayers feel hollow, silence deep.

Love me, Lord, in my weary sleep,

And let Your presence be my seal.

Love me, Lord, with a love so vast

That calms my fears and makes me whole.

Love me, Lord, and restore my soul,

Until this fleeting life has passed.
