I should have felt fear
Instead I wanted to cheer.
I feel blessed indeed
For I felt no need
To wallow in misery.
I feel like my cup is overflowing
You heard my pleas and suffering
Indeed if this is the path you’ve chosen for me
Then I’m content to have made you happy
For all along you were my shepherd.
I offer my thanks this day
There’s nothing more I can say
But words of gratitude and gladness
No more fear and sadness
My heart goes out with love to all souls and saints.
Solace

Hush now and sleep my dear
Tomorrow will be a beautiful morn.
Gently wrap your fingers around mine
And safely sail your dreams with my embrace.
Drop your anchor and lay your troubles
So long buried underneath.
The storm you faced has just passed
and you’ve held your head high.
You’ve been shielding yourself from the waves of pain
Crashing you down with its weight.
I’ll be the rock to your tears
The balm to your fears.
So slowly close your eyes and just breathe
And like music you’ll hear my heartbeat.
Let me carry you through this night
Where you’ll be at ease and be.

Sometimes I ask God
When it rains it really pours
And why humans have to cry
Everyday until they die.
Sometimes I ask God
Why everything seems wrong
Because humans have to choose
When they know they’ll lose.
Sometimes I ask God
Why bad things happen
When people only want love
But ask more of what they have.
And sometimes I ask God
When I’m just really down
Like I am carrying the ills of the world
This faith the only thing I can hold.
