Feelings can only pick you up so much
Feelings that belittle can bring you down
Feelings come and go like coughs and hiccups
Feelings run amok or ebb and flow with undercurrent to drown
Feelings may overthrow until all you are is stuck
Feelings you only know will linger near or far to smile or to frown
Feelings will too soon betray, empty, and never fill your cup
Feelings will fight deep within leaving you wounded on the battleground
How will you show resistance to the enemy bent on killing and stealing
How will you get your deep need within for healing
How will you find an ever present help and a strong refuge never leaving from all that harms concealing
How will you be lifted from the pit of darkness that will grip you back into Light revealing
How will you grow in trust without ever kneeling
How will you go on in hope when your whole being is reeling
How will you overflow in faith to cope without the Holy Spirit sealing
How will you sow in love as 3 chord strand of rope appealing
JESUS is the only One who upon this Rock will pick you up
JESUS will lift your countenance bringing Heaven down
JESUS is a constant Refuge who never leaves nor forsakes when in a rut
JESUS runs to catch you amongst the waves so as not to fully drown
JESUS lifts you up from the mud and mire or deep pit with HIS mighty righteous right hand no longer to be stuck
JESUS knows you better than yourself so delight in HIM that joy may abound
JESUS, when you continually come to HIM, will eventually refill your cups
JESUS will give you HIS residing peace healing your wounds to run again in the race until in HIS arms you’re found
