"Here I sit, water all around No help in site The cries of the hurting abound

All I can see, for miles on end Is destruction, devastation Around every corner and bend

I just can't believe it, my mind has gone blank, How could this happen? The entire city has sank!

What did I do to deserve such a fate? To be left out in the cold To be left in such a state?

I've lost everything, all of it, not a penny to my name And I sit here alone, and wonder 'Is this just a game?'

How could my Father in Heaven above, Leave me here in this agony Where is His love?

My body is limp, my head to the floor I've lost all hope I can't handle much more...

What is that over there in the corner I see A glimmer of light Shining right next to me

It's pointing at something, a piece of wood, maybe a book Floating over in the corner I think I'll go take a look...

It's wet, and heavy, a little torn on the cover but it appears to be the Bible Given to me by my Mother...

I'll open it up and see what I find God will you please tell me Why I have been left behind?

Am I really alone, left destitute in this place? Where is Your help? Where is Your Grace?

"My child, My child, put your hand in Mine Do you trust Me sweet child To turn the water into wine?

"I love you so much, I want you to know That when it seems hopeless My care for you I'll show

"But you have to trust Me, give your life entirely to Me Let Me be your Provider Protector, and Healer, I'll be...

"The things of this earth will not go with you when you die Live your life for the treasures That will last all eternity by

"Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness and Gentleness Let these be your clothing In the midst of this mess

"As you draw near to Me, I'll draw near to you To conform you to My image That My love will shine through

"You're not abandoned, sweet child, I'm here at all times Will you trust Me in this Let Me be your guide?

"I know what you need, where you are to go Just Trust Me my child Until in My presence, you go...

"I love you so much, that I gave My life for you To show you the depth Of My heart's concern for you...

"When I was on the cross, taking on your sins I felt alone and abandoned Forsaken by Him

"But I rose from the dead, victorious and alive And so will you my child With Me by your side....

Trust Me, My child, Trust Me..."
