Sometimes, seeing it, I weep
Other times I wail and cry
Seeing horror and atrocities
Committed by mankind
I am wounded deep in my soul
A howl begins deep in my spirit
Beginning from Eternity,
Rushing through my spirit
Like hurricane winds through a house
With open doors
Oh my but the pain is overwhelming
From Eternity to my spirit
Racing through my heart
Screaming in pain and anguish
It bursts forth from me
Powerless am I to hold it back
Stronger it grows as I realize
What I saw is what I see rarely
Great pain is on me as I realize
My loving God sees this everyday
Untold many times
Throughout the world
He sees what we do
To each other
Oh His pain
Knowing this
Tortures me as the thought
Rushes through me and
Scrapes the walls of my spirit
As it rips at me
I hurt deeply that my God
Sees such things
And still loves
Intensifying the pain
Is that He has seen me
Be the monster.
Soon the rushing pain is gone
What remains is eternal
Grace and love from God
As He sees the horrors
He gives His peace and joy
My soul is at rest
In Him, I find my rest
Praise God Always and Forever
