Take my sadness

Take my pain.

Let the tears flow

Like the falling rain.

Heal the hurt,

Reveal the “whys”;

Hear from heaven,

Open the skies.

Move me forward,

Let me not remain

Stuck in the past;

Never the same.

Let me bloom

Like a beautiful plant!

If You say, “I can” -

Don’t let me say, “I can’t”!

Bring freedom from this suffering

and please heal my pain.

But let me never forget -

It was You Who was slain.

The Lamb was slain

For my sin and my shame.

So what is this pain

compared to heaven’s claim?!

You hold me close;

I know You’re near.

I hear You say,

“My child, don’t fear.”

The time is short;

This suffering won’t last.

For I will come with a shout

And a trumpet blast!

Do you believe?

Can you see it’s true?

That you are loved!?

That I love you!?

So come to Me now -

I’ll never let you go.

My love, peace and comfort

You will always know.

Yes, accept Me, by faith -

It’s simple, but true...

I accept you as you are!

Yes, I LOVE YOU!

So wait no longer;

don’t delay.

I’ll make you stronger,

starting today.

Today is the day

for salvation to begin.

I knock at the door;

Will you let Me in?

Open the door;

A new life will begin.

I’ll share your pain;

I’ll remove your sin.

So come to Me now

and you will know -

I’ll always be with you -

I’ll never let you go.
