As I sit in the GARDEN late afternoon and PONDER
Sun rays SHINING down through the trees
I REFLECT on all the last year has brought me
All the LOSS PAIN and MISERY
Was I STRONG enought to BEAR it?
How will the LORD hold up my BROKEN BODY?
How will the LORD bring me PEACE of MIND?
During this DARK and DEPRESSIVE TRIBULATION TIME
Years before I FORESAW what was to be
I could not CONCEIVE that NIGHTMARE would become My REALITY
ALONE and By MYSELF even though I really WASN'T
Were the EMOTIONS within SCREAMING SILENTLY
As My HEART BROKE over and over again
My ONLY SALVATION was knowing JESUS as my BEST FRIEND
He would BREATHE STRENGTH into my BEING
When everything was CLOUDED with PAIN
He would OFFER LOVE so that I'd know what I am SEEING
When things seemed HOPELESS and like I could never GAIN
As I sit in the GARDEN late afternoon
The SUN slowly going DOWN
Close to the TIME of the appearance of the MOON
I REFLECT on all the last year has TAUGHT ME IMPRISONMENT, FREEDOM and the COURAGE I'm MADE OF
PERSECUTION, PRAISE and what the DAYS BRING
I'll keep HOLDING on to the DREAM
That one DAY the LORD will GET BACK EVERYTHING
