meet me here.

When anger drowns out reason

When unbelief is a season

When my own strength is spent

Meet me here

When arrogance has burned me

When deception has cloaked me

When I'm totally confused

Meet me here

When selfishness has conquered love

When I doubt that You're enough

When I don't care anymore

Meet me here 

When I push you away

When I've run headlong astray

When I stumble...and then fall

Meet me here

When fear overwhelms

When it hurts like hell

When my hope flickers dim

Meet me here

When apathy reigns 

When I refuse to change

When my pride tunes you out

Meet me here

When I'm swimming upstream

When it's harder than I dreamed

When I just give up

Meet me here

Meet me here where no one else will

Meet me here where no one else can

Meet me here to wash away shame

Meet me here and take me by the hand

Meet me here, 

Then, please God, 

Lead me out. 

I don't want to stay here

But I can't find my way out

My heart feels so raw

So can I give you my doubt?

If you can't meet me

Then what am I to do?

This is one big mess

And my only hope is You

I've tried every wrong turn

I've come back empty and hurt

So will you bind up my wounds?

Will you mend my heart?

"Trust me," You say

And I don't understand

Why I can't feel you here

Where I need you the most

So I pound empty fists

I declare You are good

It's not pious or pretty

It's just all that I've got

This I call to mind

Past times I groped for hope

You did meet me there

Where I needed you the most

So now I choose to believe

Though it's far from my heart

I stake my claim on truth

I believe you'll meet me in the dark

Someday, here will be there

In my journey's tale

And I'll turn my head and laugh

For every moment of doubt

"You met me There,

So Here I'll trust you again"

Sweet victory recorded

How my Shepherd led me out

"The Lord is near to all who call on Him,

To all who call on Him in truth" 

- Psalm 145:18

"This I call to mind, and thereford I have hope:

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases,

His mercies never come to an end

They are new every morning;

Great is your faithfulness.

'The Lord is my portion,' says my soul

'Therefore, I will hope in Him'

The Lord is good to those who wait for Him,

To the soul who seeks Him"

- Lamentations 3:21-25
