God's Comfort

When you have suffered loss
Or you're weary in travail...
When you have sought solutions
But still to no avail...

God will help you in this time.
He will hear your prayers.
He will lift your heavy heart
From sorrow and from cares.

He brings comfort beyond words
Deep within the soul.
His compassion and His strength
Bring peace against life's toll.

May He lift your heavy burdens
And wash weariness away.
May He give you calm assurance
And bless you day-to-day.

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Matthew 11:28-30 KJV
