Sometimes when we are mourning the loss of love, the burden of the pain seems so enormous. You've tried crying, writing, sleeping, talking...nothing seems to help. Sometimes you require a higher power to ease your burdens. That is what I was thinking, as I wrote this piece....And I thought it would be a perfect piece to introduce on a Sunday afternoon.
My life is like a ship
rolling across the ocean
feeling the ups and downs
sailing across troubled waters
Lord, Cast My Troubles Away
Feeling the burden of my heavy heart
tears flowing like rain
waters rise
a storm is brewing
Lord, Cast My Troubles Away
My spirit is deeply wounded
I toss out my net
trying to catch my happiness
but the net overflows with other things
Lord, Cast My Troubles Away
The waters rise higher and higher
wash across my ship of life
I cling to what I can
try to hold on and ignore the strife
Lord, Cast My Troubles Away
Cast my troubles
Lord cast them all away
I can only cling to your promises
And hope for another day
I need a day of sunshine
Long to feel warmth on my face
Lord I'll wait for your direction
Wait for your peace and grace
