Desperate Cry

My soul cries out desperately to You, O God

If I were a kite and You hold me by the thread
Why have You cut me away from You
And allowed me to fly freely, swayed by the wind, engulfed by the rain

If I were a toddler and You hold me by the hand
Why have You let go of me
And see me tumble and fall

My soul cried out desperately to You
Remembering the times I spent with You on that mountaintop
How close I was to seeing Your Glory
And now You seem so far, so far away

You heard my desperate cry
You couldn't bear to see me in pain anymore

You came back
And You picked me up from where I was
And held me back in Your loving arms


Thank You, Lord
