"Never on Your Own"

-Mark Mayhue

I can’t believe it’s been so long
Since I’ve been born-again
I’ve had my up’s, I’ve had my down’s
In these years of serving Him
At times it seemed we were so close
I could reach and take His hand
But then there were those moments
My heart seemed a barren land
Has God forsaken? Has He gone?
Has He forgotten me forever?
I wondered why He seemed so far
No longer were we together
But over time I realized
That never did He leave
I’m the one who lost my faith
In the God whom I believed
His silence does not mean He’s gone
I’ve learned He’s always there
He’s always working in our lives
In joy and in despair
So, if the LORD seems distant
That He has left you all alone
Just know He also works in silence
You are never on your own
