Laying awake
Unable to sleep
Lost in this storm
Lost in it deep.
Am I alone?
Am I in pain?
Those words echo back,
Is this all in vain?

This thunderous maelstrom
This thing we call life
Sometimes filled with happiness
Sometimes with strife
Lost and alone?
Those words echo back,
Will I ever learn?

Made by the Master
with caring hands
Saved by His grace
Free from the bands
Does He still love me?
What are his plans?
Those words echo back,
Time passes it's sands.

A glimmer of light
A ray of hope
Shines through the darkness
Temporarily? Nope.
Is life worth living?
Why do we try?
Those words echo back,
But why did He die?

His Son bore pain
Unimaginable to man
To save you and me
As part of that plan.
Why save us?
What are we?
Those words echo back,
Why, indeed?

Saved by His love
Eternal and true
We're all going to see him.
Yes, me. Yes, you
Fearfully made?
Wonderfully made?
Those words echo back,
The price has been paid.

A cross of wood
Ancient but new
His Son bore our sins.
Yes, me. Yes, you.
Does He still love me?
What are his plans?
These words echo back,
What does he demand?


Only my faith
Only my love
Only that to get
Eternal love.
Going to Heaven?
Child of the King?
This faith echos back,
That marvelous thing.

I cling to this hope
This ray of light.
My sins are all pardoned
In God I delight.
Never to worry?
Never feel pain?
This thought echoes back,
Thank God, I'm saved.
