Mar 2013
And tearfully I turn my gaze
Upon the Lord Jesus"s face
With desperation in my eyes
He looks upon in silence

"Oh why,dear Lord"-
My voice came forth
"Have fear consumed my life?"
Yet still in silence meets His eyes
Mine without much strife

"Explain to me!!!"I start to shout
And feel love going out-
Out my heart and out my mind,
Yet kindness radiates from Thine

I fall down to the ground ,hopeless
Before His feet my face
Yet no word from his mouth arive
To take my crippling sorrows place

Heavily I weep out loud
I have no shame-im not too proud
And slowly Jesus starts to bend down
And softly weeping -wipes my brow

"Dear beloved child-
It is not my Will to see your fall
By fear consuming you in all
I too bore fear
Alone
Yet ask of you to let me own
Your overwhelming fear that's grown
Upon my shoulders now"

And tearfully I turn my gaze
Upon the Lord Jesus"s face
My hand is taken to be placed
Within a hand that bares the hole
Left from being the sacrifice
To take our sins upon Him whole
Yes now even my fear- its so

"I came to give you life abundant
To live in peace you see
Cast even now your fear upon me
I"ll carry it-so you"ll live free

Know now that you aren't ever alone
I am with you -till I lead you home
Release this cross you bare on your own
I've carried one..before alone,
Because I love you as my own"

And tearfully I gaze upon
The Lord-my saviour whom has come
And feel peace to rest within my soul
The fear I once felt-now is gone
His arms around me tightly drew
And undeservingly my life begins anew!
Know that nothing you may carry alone in this life-is too big to be given to Him-to free you from its hold!"How gratefull be I -Thank you Jesus"
