I can't take it anymore! God help! I'm at my wits end It seems there is no friend Nearby to hear my heart's cry To understand why Surely my plight is out of sight Beyond their view and eye My intense inward struggles Nobody to listen, cuddle, and snuggle Perhaps I'm just in self pity Or overly absorbed With my current situation Nevertheless I feel the irritation The continual stress and frustration Not to mention the perpetual accusation I have no energy to defend myself Emotionally I am utterly exhausted No time to be daily drained And held a hostage Come and rescue me God Almighty, most merciful and mighty I desperately need Thee In my heart and home For You and You alone Can bring peace Jesus the Prince of peace Deliver me and bring release Vindicate and ride triumphantly Free me to live victoriously Settle and secure me in my identity So I don't think to run and roam In the past, Your power You've shown Therefore I wait patiently upon You To arise and do it again You are my closest, most trusted Friend You remain with me until the end Omniscient You know what is around the bend Omnipotent You have power from on high to send Because You in Christ became flesh You understand that With which we have to contend You also are aware Of the sin toward which we as humans tend Constrain me, That on it my life I won't spend To become enamored and seduced Help before by it I be reduced Focus my heart on my life purpose Remove from my lips Divisive and devilish discourse Help me meditate on Your Word And my speech rehearse Purify and prepare me For that which You have fully Ordained me to be Created me to do For God in heaven I love you! People often disappoint Yet You remain there for me Ready to listen and love continually Lift my heart to the heavens Open my eyes to see Remove from my heart hostility Pluck me out of Strange situations Heal me from Unrealistic expectations Give me strength In the midst of intimidation When I need to be bold Remove all hesitation Maybe I'm just airing out My loneliness Or perhaps self-actualizing Nevertheless myself I'm not despising Nor others who get me down Ask of me more than can be found For I too live in flesh and blood And have my limitations As difficult as it may be To live with others reservations And irreverent assessment Of myself and occupation Liberate me from others opinion Grant me peace and dominion Yet help me be merciful To my accusers and critics Though they make my life difficult Causing my soul to slow To the confusion and chaos they cause Whenever they assault me and show That in me with which they disagree God in my own skin, just help me Live contently and peaceably Remembering that personal growth Occurs progressively And that meanwhile I must love myself unconditionally.
