Confession

Sometimes I come to You in tears
My heart so full of pain,
Discouraged and disheartened
You pick me up again.

Sometimes I come to You in want,
I grumble and complain
And then You give just what I need
And pick me up again.

Sometimes I come to You in fear,
I fight my dread in vain
I cannot do it on my own -
You pick me up again.

Sometimes I come to You in thanks
And then it's very plain
That anytime I come to You
You'll pick me up again.

I always come to You in love,
Whether in loss or gain
You show me sweet compassion
And pick me up again.
