When your heart is heavy

 When your heart is heavy

And the walls are closing in

When you can’t find rest

And you don’t know where to begin

When life can make you wonder

What have I done so wrong?

Why all these challenges 

And you can’t find that greater song.

Way up above the storms

That song used to lift you high

Carrying you through it all

Till you learned to fly.

But look up to your Maker

He is there for you

He hasn’t left you darling

He is working a way through

So keep your eyes upon Him

And in due time you’ll see

That He never left you, ever

He’s calling you deeper to be.

Stay right by my side, Child

You are my beloved, one

I’m bringing beauty from ashes

Keep your eyes upon my Son.

Don’t ever think I've left you

I'm right here by your side

Never will I leave you

You are my joy, my bride.
