The pain of tonight
He’s finally resting.
He’s not hurting
That is all that matters
In this life of mine.
The struggles of the past
Been there, died there.
Nothing compares
To the love of today
Wanting, wanting to protect.
How do I comfort?
Same question I’ve asked
Not too long ago,
How do I stop their pain?
My arms don’t sustain.
God, help me comfort
And, give them their strength.
The power of you
Comforts the power of them.
Shine, let them feel your light.
Frustrated, scared, and
Asking for a miracle.
Do you hear me?
My Lord and savior
Listen…Listen to my cries.
All I want is all
That I will ever feel,
Comfort for
My loved ones, and
Comfort for their fears.
