In The Deepest Sorrow

 

​

The deepest sorrow you cannot explain

Relentless sorrow and hardest pain

 

Find rest alone in the mighty care

Of the loving arms, faith attests are there

 

In the deepest sorrow you cannot climb

More than a second at a time

 

Breath by breath, comes the grace

For sadness in the deepest place

 

The hardest of places the soul goes

Only the soul and the Trinity knows

 

May God in compassion, reveal He is good

In all that can never here be understood

 

In the deepest of places may He hold you still

With a mercy that helps you trust His way and will

 

Till the King comes again on that glorious day

And Himself wipes the last of your tears away

​

“He will swallow up death forever; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from all faces, and the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for the LORD has spoken.”  Isaiah 25:8 (ESV)
