Her sorrows deep and silent,
Her tears fall at night,
Her smile shines by day.
Her mourning, low and tender,
Her weeping out of sight
As shee pushes her pain away.
Can she hide her sorrow?
Can she dry her tears
And hide her pain from the naked eye?
The Lord sees and knows all,
Her pain, her fear, her sorrow,
He hears her anguished cry.
Come unto me, my child
For I will give you rest,
Give me all your sorrows,
Hear me and be blessed.
Give me your tears,
your pain,
your weeping in the night.
And I will give you joy
In the morning light.
Her tears are tears of joy,
Her pain has melted away.
The smile that shines for others
Is one of true happiness
On this bright blessed day.
Do you have pain
You mask with fake smiles?
Give it to Jesus,
He will heal you, my child.
And He will set you free
So your light shines through,
Your joy tried and true,
So you can share His love
With a lost and dying world.
I was taking my morning walk around the house, which is my prayer time with the Lord. I ask God to give me the words to write that would touch someone’s heart. As I prayed, I felt a deep need to pray for someone today. If this is you, I don’t know what your needs are, but Jesus does. If this poem is for you, I pray that it gives you comfort and strength to face the trials you’re going through right now. I pray that you find peace through the pain in your life. Please share this with someone you feel needs a touch of God’s divine hand in his or her life.
Hugs,
Ann
