Deeper, Still
My troubles seemed to overwhelm,
Why must things seem so ill?
I cried out, "Oh, how deep my wounds,"
But his love was deeper, still.
My debt hung over like a cloud,
How could I pay this bill?
"Lord, I've reached my lowest point!"
But his love was deeper, still.
My heart was aching for relief
Who can this hunger fill?
"Must emptiness be always here?"
But his love was deeper, still.
My journey seemed too much for me,
As if twas all up hill.
"My energy is tapped, I'm spent!"
But his love was deeper, still.
My eyes then lifted from my lot,
And gazed upon a hill,
"Lord, you gave all, for one like me?"
But his love was deeper, still.
So now I see that though lifes trials,
May exceed my strength or will,
He can meet my deepest need,
And his love is deeper, still.
