The Temporary Despair Prayer



Lord
As I think deeply about my sins
My troubles and despairs
And how lonely I’m feeling
I realize the only thing I can do
Think about how I’m living
And turn back to you
You are kind
Your love never fails
In all that I say and do
I still wonder why
You still love me
Even in your wrath
You show me grace and mercy
And you haven’t rejected me
You grieve when you
Send me pain
You send the rain when
I’m afflicted with sorrow
Even when I sin
Over and over again
You still have compassion for me
What all of this shall profit thee?
One moment I’m alive
The next moment I’m dead
But when I fall you lift me up
When I sin you forgive me
Your love overshadows you anger
In you O God
Can I trust when I pray to you?
Shall you hear and answer me
When I weep
Pouring my heart out to you
You shall keep me from harm
Wiping away my tears
Ascending me to drier ground
I pray thee
Everything commanded for me
Becomes a good report
And blessings overtake me
Like a violent storm

Destructive in power
Fearful in the sight of man
Take away my despairs my Lord
Restore my strength
The joy blazing brightly
Like an open fire
Make me blameless before all
That I might live again
I cannot begin to express
My thanks for all your works
My soul thanks you
My body honors you
My spirit gives you praise
My despairs are only temporary
