I cry to you

 

Lord,
When I can’t pray
I cry to you;
When I can’t face the day
I fly to you.

Lord,
When I’m storm-tossed
I cry to you;
And when all hope is lost
I fly to you.

Lord,
When I despair
I cry to you;
Trusting in your care,
I fly to you.

Lord,
When I must die
I’ll cry to you,
And then my soul, at last,
Will fly to you.
