I CRY OUT
by Jimmy Dockery
I cry out. Yet no one seems to hear.
I cry out. Yet I’m filled with fear.
I cry out. Yet no one seems to care.
I cry out. Yet life still seems unfair.
I cry out. Yet all they do is stare.
I cry out. Yet I feel so bare.
I cry out. I know I do not dare.
I cry out. Yet I feel so broken.
I cry out. Yet I know the Lord has spoken.
He has spoken. Yet I have not heard.
Not a word. It’s absurd. I’m such a nerd.
I cry out. I need a revival.
I should read my Bible.
God’s book of truth; our atlas through life.
Our way out of strife. I owe Him my life.
Yet He gave His.
He cries out. Yet I do not listen.
I know I should; I wish I would.
I want to; I need to; I have to; I must.
I’m so unjust; my life is a bust.
So full of rust; I do not trust.
But whom can I trust?
Not even myself.
God is there; for me to share.
My burdens to bear; He’s always there.
He’ll always care; He has time to spare.
For me, just me. That’s the key. Here I should be.
In Him; with Him; for Him.
I adore Him. I praise Him.
I look to Him for guidance.
I seek His will for my life.
I’m weak; He is strong. He’s never wrong.
He is my song. I’ve been looking so long.
He is my rock. By Him I set my clock.
I anchor my boat at His dock. Let Him be my lock.
I hear Him knock. I’m filled with shock.
He IS my rock.
My key to salvation; my soul’s elevation.
Life’s true revelation; a joyous sensation.
His presence in me; my reason to be.
Now I see.
I live through Thee and Thee in me.
Together we live. Through you I strive.
To give; to live; to be; to see.
Act upon and do the things You’ve set before me.
On you I’ll focus. You’ll be my wild honey and locust.
You are my mountain’s crest; my breath of fresh air; my own private lair.
Where no one can tear me from Your arms.
There is no harm; you are my charm.
No demonic swarm can touch me. No need for alarm.
You’ll keep me warm, safe and warm; away from harm.
In You I am home. To you I do come. No more will I roam.
With you in my heart; a new life I do start.
