Destitution

Every earthy refuge is gone

All safe havens are lost

There is no comfort

There are no warm arms to hold you

There is no one to share your suffering

You are truly alone

 

Every dream you have had has failed

Every hope crashes to the ground

Even the things you thought were immobile

Have been swept away by a stream of sorrow

You cannot fall further

You cannot be more broken

 

God is here

Oh God is here

He loves you

Oh how he loves you

Give your heart to Him

He will save you when all is lost

He will gather your brokenness and make you new

But never forget, He is the only truth

 

Things will get better, they always do

But you must always remember

That the earth shall pass away

Even beneath our feet it crumbles

Leaving us in darkness once more

So trust none but the Lord with your heart

 

When the sun shines brightly

On your upturned face

Give glory to God

Serve Him faithfully

And never forget

That destitution is all the world offers

 

God is here

Oh God is here

He loves you

Oh how he loves you

Give your heart to Him

He will save you when all is lost

He will gather your brokenness and make you new

Never forget, He is the only truth
