On My Own 10/22


(By list member Debbie Preuss, October 1, 2004)
Lord, I've been trying to make it on my own 
Now I sit here, feeling all alone 
I'm overwhelmed by life and I'm feeling scared 
Wishing there was someone who really cared 
I've wandered away from Your own face 
Lord, please help me by Your infinite grace 
Father I'm weary, weary to the bone 
I know I just can't make it on my own 
Forgive me Lord, a sinner am I 
Please come near, Lord hear my cry 
The tears fall freely, I am spent 
I wonder now, where my peace went 
The bills are mounting higher and higher 
I am trapped in the mud and the mire 
Lord, please come, please be my friend 
I have a broken heart for You to mend 
Lord, please hold me, hear my pleas 
I come to You Father, down on my knees 
I know You will always stay by my side 
I want to always with You abide 
Oh Lord, I love You, this is so true 
May I live only, to glorify You 
I sit here now, not so alone 
For I know I can't make it on my own 
You will be with me all along the way 
Thank You, Father, with me You'll stay

My Comments: We look so often for people to meet needs in our lives that only God can fill; He is the only One who really cares about every need we have.
