Even though I struggle through the storm,
and waves of sorrow crash over me.
And even though right now I am
a solitary figure upon the shore.
Eventually...
the calm will come.
And there will be joy and rest again.

Even though I ***** my way through the dark valley,
and see no light ahead.
And even though my heart
is filled with regret.
Eventually...
the dawn will break.
And my days will be hopeful and bright.

Even though the path of my life has taken a turn I did not expect,
and I know not what lies ahead.
I will put my trust in my Saviour and Lord.

Even though this trial may be long.
Eventually...
I will burst forth
shouting a new song.

And eventually...
This too.
Shall pass.

Don't let go of me,
lest I be swallowed up by the waves.
Don't be silent to me,
lest I be among those who go down to the grave.
Don't take Your eyes off of me,
lest I waste away from grief.
From Your care, O Lord, grant me no release.
Lest I, from fear's grip,
find no peace.
Be not far away from me, dear Lord,
lest my soul never find healing,
and be forever scarred.
Don't let go of me.
O, speak to me, God.
Speak to me.
For my very life hangs upon Your Word.
Be not silent.
Be not silent.
Lest my soul within me perish from a slow death.
Be not far from me, dear Lord.
