The Moment that Never Ends

The Moment that Never Ends

Kneeling, and feeling helpless in need
Tired and hopeless once we had been
Tears washed faces and trembling voices
Loud shouts mixed with whispering poises
Dark days were passing in mechanical slow motion
Crying silently without showing deep emotion
Living in the past, blind to the future, not getting ahead
Afraid of taking chances, as we believe only in our heads
But You reach out Your hand to all to grasp
You wait patiently while we struggle and gasp
When ready, You lift us from secret depths of misery
Flood our hearts with unfailing love against tyranny
And teach us how to live in the now, the moment that never ends
