They say You care for Your children
That their tears are in Your hand
That You embrace the broken heart
That You are our Comforter through the trials
They say Your presence is ever here
That You were, are and ever will be
With us, all the way to Kingdom come
That You are in and all around each of us
But these tears seem so silly
I’m crying for nothing at all
It makes no sense that I’d despair
Over something so small
These wounds were small, but
They’re inflicted all over me
I know it might not just be this
But the stress I bear is great
They say Your love is great and reckless
That Your grace is a violent storm
That cracked the surface of time
With the paradox of Your sacrifice
They say that You are tender and kind
That Your reckless love will embrace
And hold a heart together, bringing healing
To what has been broken, I am so broken
Lord my mind is broken
My mind has snapped in two
I still am so unstable, with
This depression that’s so strong
My heart throbs and aches
In my chest, its rhythm is somber
And I long for a healing touch
‘Cuz I’m so weary of falling apart
They say You care for Your children
They say Your presence is ever here
They say Your love is great and reckless
They say that You are tender and kind
So, here I arise and reach out for You
Just hoping You’ll hear a bipolar child’s prayer
