I see walls
I see walls on every side of me.
Dark walls.
Brick walls.
Walls that seem to be made out of steel and the toughest stone.
I can’t see my way through.
I’m overwhelmed
But then I am comforted in the knowledge that you can see for me.
As I hold onto you,
You embrace me Lord and hold me firm,
You comfort with the words,
All will be well
Everything is going to be alright.
But Still my heart longs for those days when I don’t have to worry.
Lord, you are in control and I long for quiet peace.
A peace that passes all understanding.
Unto you I lift up my praise.
My heart yearns for you in a dry and thirsty land.
For with Christ in the vessel I know I can smile at the storm
