"Sometimes"


(For the brokenhearted)


"Sometimes"

Sometimes, tears are prayers,
voicing the yearnings of our heart
far more than words could ever
tell our cares.
Sometimes, tears are prayers.

Sometimes, sighs are cries
unto our Father above,
seeking the grace that dwells
in His heart of wondrous love.
Sometimes, sighs are cries unto our Father above.

Sometimes, silence sings
hymns of thankful offerings
  graced with melodies
no ear can divine, but the Divine.
Sometimes… sometimes, silence sings.

Sometimes tears are prayers,
sometimes sighs are cries,
sometimes, silence sings.
Great is the mystery, but the trusting heart
hidden in the Christ of God knows such things...

Sometimes, tears are prayers.


"The Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered."
(Romans 8:26)
"I am so troubled that I cannot speak…I call to remembrance my song in the night, I commune with mine own heart and my spirit made dlilgent search."
(Psalm 77:4; 6)

Weekly Memory Verse
   I cried unto Thee, o Lord, I said, Thou art my refuge and my portion in the land of the living.
(Psalm 142:5)
