Dear God,
is heaven afar or is it near?
My heart says it your voice it cannot hear.
Its dark and cold,
Lost and hard as stone.
Am I not wrong,
Why is your answer takes so long?
Your touch, I cannot feel,
In which my spirit helplessly cannot heal.
Each tear that falls on my face,
Is longing for your glorious grace.
I cry and I pray,
That you would hear what I have to say.
I confess to all that I have done,
No good deed has become (of me).
I hope when I am done here,
That you take me in your arms of loveā¦.
And help me find a better life
Than the road I have treaded for so many years.
As my time here is finally done,
I know what my new life has just begun!
Amen.
