Heartaches

 

God can lift the hurt you're feeling,

He can take away each care,

but, you must give Him your burden,

and that's only done through prayer.

 

God knows everything about you

from beginning to the end,

He can help you like no other,

He's your very dearest friend.

 

When you're weak He'll make you strong,

when you're sad He brings such peace,

when discouraged He's right with you,

then you feel a sweet release.

 

He'll walk with you through each valley

till the mountain you ascend,

and it's only through His comfort

that a broken heart can mend.

 

Don't allow your faith to falter,

don't give up, keep pressing on;

you can make it with the Lord's help,

after darkness comes the dawn.
