h-ache

being home has been strange and a little painful.
it's been hard for me to be gentle. 
tired of hearing, seeing lies. whines.


there is nothing i can do but focus on the only thing, only one that i know and believe
is truly truly truly Truth.


the only thing i can fully defend, call truly mine and truly true is my salvation in You.


i felt so confined that i ran and stared at the night. the trees. the moon.
i felt free, remembering how vast is Your glory, God.
that you know my heart, understand me, remember me.
and this song played, soothing my overwhelmed soul:


If my heart is overwhelmed and I cannot hear Your voice
I’ll hold on to what is true though I cannot see
If the storms of life they come and the road ahead gets steep
I will lift these hands in faith
I will believe


I remind myself of all that You’ve done
And the life I have because Your Son

Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours, I am forever Yours
Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
That I am Yours I am forever Yours

When my heart is filled with hope
and every promise comes my way
When I feel Your hands of grace rest upon me

Staying desperate for You God
Staying humbled at Your feet
I will lift these hands and praise
I will believe

I remind myself of all that You’ve done
And the life I have because Your Son

Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours,  I am forever Yours
Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
That I am Yours I am forever Yours

I am Yours
I am Yours
All my days
I am Yours

I am Yours, I'm Yours forever
I am Yours, I'm Yours forever
I am Yours, I'm Yours forever Lord
