Lifted

Let’s be honest, life can go from being wonderful one minute to feeling as if you’ve been hit by a bus the next.

When we’re finding life difficult, and feel as if we’ve hit rock bottom, that can often be when we think God isn’t listening to our prayers, that he had deserted us – I know that has definitely been the case for me in the past.

One song that has reminded me recently that no matter how many times life deals me a bad hand, and I feel as if I’ve hit rock bottom, and God has deserted me, I can still reach out to God and he will take my hand and lift me up again.

Am I unfit for You
Remember me, the one who turned from You
I come in rags tattered by the fall
And all the earth, a witness to my crime

Mercy, weep over me
Let Your tears wash me clean
Majesty, be merciful with me
For my eyes have seen Holy

Hear my prayer at night
Let the morning find me alive
For I am tired and weakend by the fall

Let all the earth bear witness to my cry
Let the Amen sound from Heaven as You lift my soul
Let the Amen sound from Heaven as You lift my soul
Let the Angels sound from Heaven, Holy is the Lord
