Why, Lord, has it been so long since from You I heard?
Why is this not somewhere mentioned in Your Word?
Why, to me, do You no longer talk?
Why won't You come and with me, walk?
Why do You stay so far away?
Why won't You come and visit me today? Why do You no longer say, "I love you?"
Why is there nothing more You will do?
Why do I feel so helpless and down?
Why is it You no longer come around?
Why won't You, once again, lift me up?
Why can't I drink from Your refreshing cup?
Why do I have to walk this path alone?
Why can't a little 'of Your joy be shown?
Why do You not listen when I ask?
Why is just living becoming such a task?
Why is it You no longer care about me?
Why is this the way things must be?
Why is there no answer when I pray? Why is the answer never now, today?
Why don't You touch my hurting soul?
Why is all this taking its toll?
Why is there nothing when, after You, I yearn?
Why do You not show me of Your concern?
"I have seen everything you have gone through.
Not for one minute, alone, have I left you.
I have seen your every 'why'.
That is why I came to give you life, grace and to die."
