A Widower's Psalm
Sometimes the grief consumes me, I can't believe the pain.
I struggle to be happy but find my efforts vain.
I feel so lost and lonely, I feel so all alone.
I cry out for His mercy, yet feel I'm on my own.
Where are the rays of sunshine? Oh, when will I feel peace?
When will the darkness be dispelled? When will my sadness cease?
Men are that they might have joy, this is our Father's plan.
And yet amidst my sorrow, It's hard to understand.
I trust our loving Father, I'm certain He knows best.
This trial has a purpose, it's meant to be a test.
I pray that I can pass it, I pray I might be strong.
I pray for understanding, I pray to carry on.
I pray I might be happy, I pray I find relief.
Help me dear Lord to find peace, and take away my grief.
