Sitting alone one morning after my children left for school
I was exhausted and depressed. I didn’t feel like reading my
Bible and I certainly didn’t feel like praying. I just sat and
felt numb. As I sat there though I felt someone there with me.
I knew it was God so cried out to Him and this is what I felt
and heard Him saying back to me.

I'll Get You Through

I feel so weak and I’m giving up.
I won’t let you give up.
I just can’t go on.
I’ll make you strong.
I am so afraid.
With you I have stayed.
I just want to cry.
Your eyes I will dry.
I’m doubting again.
I’ll take all your pain.
Your joy I don’t feel.
You’re heart I will heal.
But sadness fills me.
Get down on your knee.
I have no words.
Your heart can be heard.
I don’t know how!
Sit quiet right now.
I’m pushing away.
Please try my way.
Please Jesus stay near.
Yes child, I’m here.
I feel you with me!
I’m setting you free!
I know that you are.
I’m taking your scar.
My burdens feel lighter.
Things will be brighter.
My heart feels brand new.
I’m helping you through.
You didn’t let me give up!
I won’t let you give up!
When you’re feeling down,
I’ll take your sad frown.
And when you can’t cope,
I’ll fill you with hope.
When you're filled with fear,
Just reach out, I’m here.
I’ll get you through,
Cause Child I love you!
