I went to bed lonely, hungry and afraid
plagued with doubts
what a foundation for this life I’ve laid
the moon light dimmed out
and darkness surrounds
my soul and my mind

This morning I awoke again
the sun rose again
and I got up again
lonely, hungry and afraid
but the morning sunlight dances
another day of chances
in my life of uncertainty

Beyond a shimmer of doubt
hope still exists
and with Him as I sit
my body goes on hungry
while my soul is slowly fed

Lord, I am so hungry
what have you allowed me to do to me?
who will I be?
All I want is certainty
and peace and hope
shut my eyes
I cope.

Lord I am so hungry, alone and afraid

The bridge between my mind and soul
severed
but the sun still comes back
and so will I
as time makes certain
all uncertainty
and clear the reality
of your hand feeding me
and meeting me
even when I’m lonely,
hungry
and afraid.
