I'm That Way Now


Sometimes each day is so much like
the day before
With no new challenge or goals
for us to meet
We're to weak and discouraged
to go thru the open door
We feel like sleeping the day away
and not raise our feet.

I'm that way now
 I have been for days
When I look up,
 only dark clouds I see
I sure hope it's only a trial
 a passing phase
or a rebuke for me

I guess it's just within us
When we feel all washed out
People complain
about everything we do
Our face wears a frown
our mouth a pout
That's when we need to
communicate to you Lord

You have helped me
thru down days before
Lifted me over them
so I could see the light
I'll wait patiently and pray
Until you open the door
that will stop my days
from looking like the night

This is when we need
to lift our prayers to thee
 talk to you about the things
in our life today
We need to find new strength
and the way again to see
We know you're there
and by our side you'll stay
