A sky of stars so crisp and clear, it seems to be in reach
As I from out my window peer and to The Lord beseech
My burdens seem so many and so heavy seems my load
I long for help, if any, for so lonesome seems my road
But I am just one tiny speck in a world so vastly grand
How can He keep with me in check, I do not understand
Yet still I know that He is there, no matter where I roam
And He will both my burdens bear and see me safely home
And though at tymes I feel forlorn, the course I will
maintain
For what awaits will soon adorn and erase all hint of pain
And knowing thus will see me through whatever lies afore
‘Twill brighten every day anew and grant peace evermore
For though I cannot comprehend the love He has for me
I know ‘tis true and ‘twill not end, forever it will be
