In our pain, in our suffering

In our pain, in our suffering
an assurance of presence
God’s promise to us
abiding with us
God is here, walking beside us
even when we fail to sense him
Christ is still here

The Spirit with us
abiding, indwelling
leading us through
the shadowlands
God caring, showing compassion
forgiving us ever
leading us on
in the darkness
offering light
showing the way
through the darkest night
