Broken dreams, nightmares of uncertainty Adversity, chained to eternity
I'm crying out, looking for your covering But all I see is grief, pain, and suffering
I feel alone, warding off this agony In this life of anxiety and tragedy
I'm at the end, searching but I never knew So much despair, I surrender, I've been overthrew
Have you considered his servant, Job? Children, cattle, flesh from his bones, they all were gone
His wife, foolishly speaking, said, curse God and die Job refused, God gave him devil, that's why we cry
I cry, I cry out to you I cry, I cry out for you
For you to prove the promises you spoke were true
Broken dreams, where I'll spend eternity Tree of life, streets of gold, green emerald sea
Fire and brimstone, place of welling and gnashing of teeth
Hoping my path is straight and narrow that few might find
Not the way that seemed in the rise to my finite mind
Hijacked by thoughts of my sinful past Oh God, how long will this torment last?
Caning in, consumed by depression and grief
Those who sow, sow in tissue, reap with joy In the Lord, enjoy what they can't destroy
Victory in all the odds that I defy You'll never leave me, nor forsake me, no, you'll never lie
I cry, I cry out to you I cry, I cry out for you
Can you show up for me? I need to see you move like you promised
How much for pain, I'm so unsure Lord, can't you see the enemy's knocking at my door?
With depression, aggression, and suicidal thoughts
My reflections are moments in time forever lost
It's my confession, I'm a sinner I fall short, I need your grace
Constantly praying, impressing, seeking out your faith
Your holy ghost, your anointing, and your righteousness
Crying out to you from this place of hopeless distress
I cry, I cry out to you I cry, I cry out for you
Can you hear me crying? The people are dying
COVID-19 is consuming People's businesses are dying
We need you in this season For no cause or reason
I cry, I cry out to you I cry, I cry out for you
For the homeless and mentally ill For the young black men being brutally killed
Oh God, I cry I'm crying out to you, Lord
I cry, I cry
I cry, I cry out to you I cry, I cry out for you
Now I'm all crying out
