The
Pit
gone
what
once I held so dear
so
removed beyond my power
that
even the desire
has
died
Lord
God
you
have seen fit
for
what ever cause
to
take from me this
treasure
leaving
only
an
empty pit
filling
with grief
this
soul once
filled
with delight
in
your service
oh
my God
that
you would rend the skies
come
down and speak
explain
why I feel this grief
why
you took my joy
and
tell my weeping soul
the
purpose of your plan
where
else is comfort ‘midst these tears
what
other power heals this wound
who
but you can bear my trust
I
stand upon your ball
a
man of your creating
wanting
only to please you
and
you took from me my joy
and
tonight
where
once you made me brave
I
stood in terror
and
I
don’t
know
why
