Heavy Hearts

I have been alone on this road
And my empty hands have nothing to show
Will You be my peace when my heavy heart holds no hope?

Lately I've been struggling just to see Your face
And everything I reach out for slowly slips away
I was told these days would come, and I thought I could face them
But I am nothing without You
I am nothing without You

Are we sinking in the waves?
And everything that we have known has slowly washed away?
Please take this away from me 'cause I can't bear the shame
Of knowing I have failed
Of knowing that I caused all this

You promised me a love, a love that knows no end
And forgiveness as wide as this ocean of selfishness that I'm drowning in
And I know that I am called to stand amidst all these struggles
But I am nothing without You, I am nothing without you

Still I can't help but question what will become of me
If this darkness is all I see
Is this darkness all I can be?

Are we sinking in the waves?
And everything that we have known has slowly washed away?
Please take this away from me 'cause I can't bear the shame
Of knowing I have failed
Of knowing that I caused all this

Truly we have found the darkest days
And we're forced to live with the mistakes
But with every passing moment this darkness is overtaking me
With empty hands I'm reaching out, is there any hope left for me?

It is Your hands that carry me
It is Your voice that spoke of a love I never knew
It is Your grace that fills me
It is Your love that sustains
If there is hope it is You

In You lord I have taken shelter
in You lord I have placed my trust
though my heart is prone to wander, your grace shines to lead me home
forgive me lord when myself consumes me and I deny your redeeming blood
cleanse my hands for you are holy
fill my heart with your love
Amen
