The light You bring can sometimes mean
Things come back round again.
New grief pours out and tears fall down
For once forgotten pain

Thought left behind and pushed aside,
And buried underground,
But my God ne’er forgot; Your mercy never stopped!
Once more I am undone.

Now seeds long carried, in anguish buried
In barren years called “wait”
Have taken root and show their fruit
In unexpected grace…

And maybe, Lord, I’m learning more
The depth of grief denied—
The sadness deep, the tears I weep
Now ambush me inside.

Please, wash through me till finally
I turn once more to You.
Let grief be done; give me Your song
And heal my heart anew.
