Cry Out to Jesus

A heard this song on the radio last week and though I have heard it so many times before and I even own the CD it is on, I never had really listened to all of the words before. As soon as I listened to the first few lines tears where streaming down my face as I thought of Marshall, of course. Oh there is so much pain and hurt and saddness in this world. I just want it to all go away! Go away! Sometimes it just leaves me really longing for heaven. Here are the lyrics. Our only solution really is just to cry out to Him.

----------
Third Day - Cry Out To Jesus
From the album Wherever You Are

To everyone who's lost someone they love
Long before it was their time
You feel like the days you had were not enough
when you said goodbye
And to all of the people with burdens and pains
Keeping you back from your life
You believe that there's nothing and there is no one
Who can make it right

Chorus:
There is hope for the helpless
Rest for the weary
Love for the broken heart
There is grace and forgiveness
Mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus, Cry out to Jesus

For the marriage that's struggling just to hang on
They’ve lost all of their faith in love
And they've done all they can to make it right again
Still it's not enough
For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains
You try to give up but you come back again
Just remember that you're not alone in your shame
And your suffering

Chorus

When your lonely
And it feels like the whole world is falling on you
You just reach out, you just cry out to Jesus
Cry to Jesus

To the widow who suffers from being alone
Wiping the tears from her eyes
For the children around the world without a home
Say a prayer tonight

Chorus

Of course the days were not long enough. And I never did get to say goodbye.

Love,
Heidi
