A Desperate Heart

I call out to you,
I cry your name,
I long to see your face,
to know this is not all in vain.

Right now I see darkness,
but I know your light is there.
Will you just hold me,
in times that I'm scared?

I pray for your wisdom,
the ability to see the truth.
To know that the answer
is not somewhere...aloof

There has to be an answer.
There has to be a way.
But it seems I just sit here
in dismay.

This life can't be as hard as it seems,
Do I keep trying to change
or do I stand up and scream?

Lord, "I pour out my heart and say that I love you.
I pour out my heart and say that I need you."
