And hope does not disappoint us

1 Peter 5:6-7
"Humble yourselves under God's mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you."

Jesus I long for thee, and sight for Canaan's shore.
Thy lovely face to see, an all my warfare o'er;
here billows break upon my breast and brooding sorrows steal my rest.

I pant, I groan, I grieve for my untoward heart;
How full of doubts I live, though full of grace thou art!
What poor returns I make to thee for all the mercy shown to me!

And must I ever smart, a child of sorrows here?
Yet, Lord be near my heart, to soothe each rising tear,
then at thy bleeding cross I'll stay, and sweetly weep my life away.

Frightened Rabbit

I'm working on my backwards walk
walking with no shoes or socks
and the time rewinds to the end of may
i wish we'd never met then, met today

I'm working on my faults and cracks
filling in the blanks and gaps
and when I write them out they don't make sense
I need you to pencil in the rest

I'm working on drawing a straight line
and I'll draw until I get one right
..

I'm working on erasing you
I just don't have the proper tools
I get hammered forget that you exist
There's no way I'm forgetting this

I'm working hard on walking out
shoes keep sticking to the ground
...

I've been working on my backwards walk
there's nowhere else for me to go
