Dedicated to a friend needing comfort.
I cannot know the pain that you have felt.
Your boat rides waves that mine has never crossed.
My hand holds not the cards that you've been dealt.
My eyes shed not the tears that yours have lost.
I cannot guess the weight that you must lift.
I couldn't tell the stories that you've told.
I walk on different sand than you must sift.
I cannot guess the grief your heart must hold.
I will not drink the wine that's in your glass.
I've never hiked the trail that marks your hill.
The snow I ski has none like your crevasse.
My medicine is not your bitter pill.
But I know this: We love the same great God!
We both can trust His never-failing Word.
The paths we take, His feet already trod.
The prayers we whisper never go unheard.
And I can tell you at this time, my friend,
Through rain and sunshine, and when skies are gray,
Our God's exhaustless love will never end,
Through yesterday, tomorrow, and today.
Rejoice! For He is living! Trust His grace.
He understands our sorrow and our fear.
His promises are sure-He's in this place!
Oh! He will never leave you! He is here!
