Tears Of Bitterness - Extol

Divine security, heartfelt certainty

But my faith was soon turned to doubt

When everything around me fell apart

A broken foundation

No unity remains, I was abandoned

Left alone, put away, God forsaken

The downfall of my faith

The peace and safety fades away

A glance towards the sky

So unreachable without signs

I’m drifting towards the unknown

The solitude surrounds me

And the loneliness drains my strength

Old memories dawns upon me

Your light, your warmth

My God, my God

Why have You forsaken me

When I need You the most

Where are You to find?

My faith in You has vanished

I’ve tried long enough

You seem further away than ever

Will I ever trust You again?

Tears of bitterness

The broken hope within

Is this what You promised me

The day I gave my life to You?

A wish, a longing towards the sky

But still encircled

By Lucifer’s freezing shadow

God if You really exist

Illuminate the path that leads me back

Thoughts penetrate my mind

Words from the past come to life

A light from above melts my callous heart

The Lord is good to those

Who seek and wait for Him
