When all else fails

Why do I wait

“Till all else fails”

To come to You with all life’s travails

I wait till my son is lost at sea

I wait till the sickness is eating me

I wait till my car is towed away

I wait, and I wait, and I wait.

 

Finally! When all else fails

And the wind is sucked right out of my sails

I scream out loud, I fall on my knees

I weep and I moan

You’ve been right there with me.

 

Still I run on, to go it alone

My job runs out, I can’t get a loan

My spouse has gone and abandoned me

I feel like I’m hanging dead from a tree.

 

I cry louder still

My knees bloody and torn

Each day I feel ever more forlorn

But one very dark yet wonderful night

I’m filled to the brim with Your glorious light.

 

The peace they say I can’t understand

Fills me so full

I’m a spiritual man

The light comes on

There’s no more resisting

All I needed to do was to

Stop

Ask 

And listen.

 

So I wait no more till all else fails

I’m through with the need to whimper and wail

The first thing I do

Is turn inward to You

Always and forever 

There is peace, love and understanding.
