Trust me, I've been there, I've looked, I've searched and I know now, that there are no answers to be found in the bottom of a bottle or on the edge of a blade! Fighting Hard, Recovering, Rebuilding, REBORN. Moving on from addiction to a new life.
After darkened nights Where I heard Your voice Yet still never understood I craved to return to the past But there You took that all away At the coming of the darkness I spoke out my heart to You “Lord bring me peace” And strained eyes fell closed Until they woke at morning’s call Never a sleep so peaceful Never one so full and complete Eyes open I knew You had heard me And gave me the glory of Your peace
As the storm comes I pray That the wave will fall silent In my hope That the rain dies down I wish I could see the sun and the stars Not just the chaos of my soul But my Lord hear my prayer He calls out to me Reassuring When I lay my head Will not be afraid Consoling With my hear upon my pillow My sleep will be sweet Reaffirming He will be ever at my side And when the time comes He will calm my storm
I so remember those dark nights of being unable to sleep, that’s why I drank, to drink myself to sleep and escape. But now, since that first time that I prayed, I have been receiving the sweetest sleep ever.
EVEN IF by KUTLESS Sometimes all we have to hold on to Is what we know is true of who You are So when the heartache hits like a hurricane That could never change who You are And we trust in who You are
Even if the healing doesn’t come And life falls apart And dreams are still undone You are God You are good Forever faithful One Even if the healing Even if the healing doesn’t come
Lord we know Your ways are not our ways So we set our faith in who You are Even though You reign high above us You tenderly love us We know Your heart And we rest in who You are
Even if the healing doesn’t come And life falls apart And dreams are still undone You are God You are good Forever faithful One Even if the healing Even if the healing doesn’t come
You’re still the Great and Mighty One We trust You always You’re working all things for our good We’ll sing your praise
You are God and we will bless You As the Good and Faithful One You are God and we will bless You Even if the healing doesn’t come Even if the healing doesn’t come
