NIGHT PRAYER: Wednesday 4/21

 

When I'm lost, without a compass,

not sure of where I am,

come find me, Lord...

 

When I feel that I'm invisible,

that no one knows I'm here,

come find me, Lord...

 

When I speak but no one answers

and I fear that no one hears me,

come find me, Lord...

When I've lost my place,

can't find my place,

come find me, Lord...

 

When the loneliness is palpable

and clouds are closing in,

come find me, Lord:

from nowhere bring me somewhere,

to a place where I belong...

Come running, Lord,

and take me home

into your arms, into your heart,

to the place where I belong...

 

Come find me, Lord:

lift me up from where I've fallen, lift me up 

to where your light comes streaming in,

to where the morning breaks 

and all is new and I am home

because you've found me

and I've let myself be found...

Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake

and watch over me while I sleep

that awake, I might keep watch for you,

as you keep watch for me until I'm found,

until I'm home, at peace, with you...

Amen.

You Will Be Found from Dear Evan Hansen,

Have you ever felt like nobody was there?
Have you ever felt forgotten in the middle of nowhere?
Have you ever felt like you could disappear?
Like you could fall, and no one would hear?

Well, let that lonely feeling wash away
Maybe there's a reason to believe you'll be okay
'Cause when you don't feel strong enough to stand
You can reach, reach out your hand

And oh, someone will come running
And I know, they'll take you home

Even when the dark comes crashing through
When you need a friend to carry you
And when you're broken on the ground
You will be found

So let the sun come streaming in
'Cause you'll reach up and you'll rise again
Lift your head and look around
You will be found

There's a place where we don't have to feel unknown

And every time that you call out
You're a little less alone

If you only say the word
From across the silence
Your voice is heard

And oh, someone will come running
Oh, they'll take you home

Even when the dark comes crashin' through
When you need a friend to carry you
When you're broken on the ground

You will be found!

So when the sun comes streaming in
'Cause you'll reach up and you'll rise again
If you only look around
You will be found

You will be found
You will be found

Out of the shadows
The morning is breaking
And all is new, all is new
It's filling up the empty
And suddenly I see that
All is new, all is new

You are not alone

Even when the dark comes crashin' through
When you need someone to carry you
When you're broken on the ground

You will be found!

So when the sun comes streaming in
'Cause you'll reach up and you'll rise again
If you only look around
You will be found
