Come, guardian of my soul
Debby Hartnell-2022
when the darkest of days overwhelm me
when I’m feeling despair take its toll
when I’m desperately needing compassion
come, guardian of my soul
your voice falls soft
like gentle rain
on my heart when it’s heavy as stone
the hurt is more than I can bear
too much to bear alone
but I am not alone-I never was
and never will I be
the armies of heaven and Jesus himself
are praying over me
even when I’m not asking for help
someone who loves me is
then the Lord bends down and listens
to the prayers of those who are his
oh, mover of mountains
fullness of light
whisper your promises
all through the night
though I waver from faith to fear
I wake in the morning
and you are still here
then you tenderly touch
every wound every ache
you make the decisions
my mind cannot make
you lift up my head
even when I resist
giving reason to live and move and exist
through all my mistakes
through my unbelief
through the worst of my
inconsolable grief
you fill my heart with love and joy
and now my heart is whole
you are with me every moment
come, guardian of my soul
oh, mover of mountains
fullness of light
whisper your promises
all through the night
though I waver from faith to fear
I wake in the morning
and you are still here.
