Clinging To The Cross

Clinging To The Cross

Lightningstorms crashing down on this once pristine soul,
Raindrops fall down, deafening thunderbolts
How I wonder can I make it through,
To overcome life's obstacles?

Unforeseen future, unstable grasp
Threatening skies, a lonely path.
Mile high waves, tormented seas
Can't bother me,
My faith will guide me and set me free.

Gray eagle flying on broken wings
Tormented mind, shattered soul
Who can I call on to make me whole?
No need to fret,
I gave my heart to the Lord, you see!

The lord is my shepherd, the Lord is my King.
Hand in hand my heart does sing.
Soaring through Heaven
Careless and free,
Blessed assurance He's given me.

Earthly temptations are there to deceive me,
Others may try to sway and mislead me.
Inner peace now takes control,
Positive the Lord will heed my call.

Deathless endurance, sweet victory,
These are the treasures the Lord has bestowed upon me.
Many storms He's guided me through.
He held my hand and freed my soul,
Eternally grateful, My Lord to you I surrender all.

Though thunderstorms may come and go
Seems like I'm losing the battle, I'm all alone.
No man-made obstacles can break my stride.
You strengthen my spirit and return my pride,
I'm living my life clinging to the cross.
For without you Lord, I'm only lost!
