Jan 2015
While I'm laying here all alone,
I think of my Father on His throne.
Picking up the pieces of my heart,
I look to the One for where to start.

Empty spaces becoming more clear,
I'm filled by remembering You are near.
Everything lost, I'm missing a ton,
But I'm reminded of the greatest victory I've won.

From this world I may be rejected and abused,
Just like the innocent One who was accused.
But the cross is where the world was defeated,
His sacrifice gives me all the love I've ever needed.

Looking at the darkness, it's hard to see light.
Pushing back the past requires some fight.
Setting my mind on things Above, not on this earth,
I find beauty in the light of all that I'm worth.

Things may come, things may go,
But God remains for every joy and woe.
So lying here feeling the weight of everything wrong,
I release it to my Savior who's been here all along.

To my heart faintly beating in my chest,
To my tired mind that is in need of some rest,
The empty spaces are filled and the darkness made light,
So I can sleep soundly in the Spirit's peace tonight.
