MY SOUL IS GREATLY TROUBLED
The Body is weakened and fear mounts;
Doubts come and questions abound!
Is the Lord angry and displeased?
What can the Soul do to find release?
The Mind is in a whirl and no answers are easily found;
Troubles have not abated, and evil continues to surround.
The Soul must lay hold of trust in the LORD’s mercy;
Prayers must ascend to God even more earnestly.
The Soul is greatly troubled and there is little comfort;
Every bit of energy must be put in, with great effort.
Prayers must continue to be outpoured to God;
Surely, there is yet mercy with the LORD!
Trust in the LORD will sometimes be thoroughly tested;
The strength of the inner man must arise and be measured.
The LORD will hear our heartfelt cries and will grant mercy;
This is a truth that we must hold fast to in all our difficulties.
