My God, You are The Lifter of my head
But never have I wanted so much to be dead
I need You to come and rescue me
By your love, your grace, by your mercy.
I need to know that you’re still here
Still by my side, even though I fear
Abandonment from You, I feel so alone
I need to be a prodigal, and return back home.
Let me rest, let me mend
Let me trust, please God let this end,
Let me see your glory, your patience, your peace,
Your hope, your rest, I need the pain to cease
It is all I say and do and think,
It needs to start to shrivel, shrink
And become a tiny scar in my heart
That will surely, in time, set me apart
And show me to be one who is loved
By God, who is beside me, all around and above.
