From Where My Help Comes ~

Whenever I am sad,
when burdens overcome
I lift my eyes to heaven
from where my help comes.

Praying, I ask for relief,
from my swollen eyes
knowing the One I believe
will listen to my cries.

Whenever I am restless,
when my fears overpower
I lift my eyes to heaven
to the One who’ll empower.

I let my mind engulf,
the magnitude of His grace
the One who’s full of mercy
gives me peace to embrace.

Whenever I am sad,
I lift my head up high
knowing that my tears . . .
the One I trust will dry!

from whence cometh my help.”

A Sure Cure ~

Having a rotten day,
you know the kind I mean
when all you want to do
is pull your hair and scream.

Feeling like a Ferris wheel,
never know when you’ll stop
but, you’re pretty certain
it will be at the top.

Nothing’s working out,
things not coming together
feel like a volley ball
without a strong tether.

Can’t catch your breath,
with all the running around
spinning in circles
just like a merry-go-round.

Well, I understand,
really I do . . .
some day’s I get woozy
just like you.

But, I have a sure cure,
for every kind of bad day
before I get up, I look up . . .
and to God I just pray!
