Forever With Thee

"My God, My God...

Why have you forsaken me?

Please hear my desperate plea;

My time I have devoted,

My life I spent for thee.

Oh why then, Father

Hast thou forgotten me?

"My Lord, My Brother

My Redeemer dear: canst thou

Remember me somehow?"

"Oh child of mine,

Precious spirit divine

Where art thou faith?

Thy prayers are heard.

Now hear ye my Son

And study His word."

"We have not forsaken thee,

Not in thine hour of need.

Each trial thou art given,

Is a grand blessing indeed.

Each tribulation an opportunity

To spread thy wings and soar.

Each struggle thou hast known

A greater challenge bore.

Now see how thou hast grown!"

"We do not hand thee

More than thou can take.

In these times of trouble,

Thou we won't forsake.

"Our voice is the whisper,

The strength in the wind;

With you -past the end."
