When Human Ties Fade

Share

I said, "My soul is weary and tired,"

The Lord replied, "My grace is by your side."

I said, "They broke my heart and caused me pain,"

The Lord replied, "Yet close to you I remain."

I said, "They all walked away and left me alone,"

The Lord replied, "My presence is forever your own."

I said, "My spirit is heavy and sad,"

The Lord replied, "Just call Me, and let your heart be glad."

I cried, "So much I wept, so much I burned,

Yet no one came, no one returned."

The Lord replied,

"In the heart where I make My dwelling place,

They need no other shield or embrace."

I said, "Whoever comes just leaves a scar,"

The Lord replied,

"When weary and broken by the world you are,

When every earthly bond falls apart and through,

Return to Me, for I am waiting for you."

I placed my hand on my chest, and looked up at the sky,

Where a shooting star faded, silently passing by.

And in that single moment, my heart found its peace,

Knowing that human ties may fail, but my Lord's love will never cease.
