PSALM 22 - ETERNAL EMBRACE

In the depth of despair, I cry out to You,
Seems like silence, yet Your love remains true.
Surrounded by shadows, feeling so small,
Yet, in this darkness, to You I call.

Though I feel forsaken, lost in the night,
I hold to the memories, Your love's guiding light.
Kings of the past, they trusted and saw,
Your mercy and grace, free from flaw.

Like water I'm poured out, strength’s slipping away,
Yet even in darkness, I hope and I pray.
The scorn of the masses, they jeer and they jest,
But in Your promises, my soul finds its rest.

For You are the one who drew me from the womb,
Gave me life, dispelled looming doom.
In the face of adversity, Your truth I’ll proclaim,
With a heart full of praise, I’ll honor Your name.

From the ends of the earth, to the deepest blue sea,
People of all nations will turn and see.
That in moments of sorrow, or joy’s loud song,
It's You, our Redeemer, to whom we belong.

The poor will be fed, the lost will be found,
In Your unfailing love, we are unbound.
Generations to come will hear of Your fame,
And to the world, they'll proclaim Your name.

Though trials may come, and shadows may fall,
In Your eternal love, I find my all.
With faith as my guide, and Your song in my heart,
From Your embrace, I'll never depart.
