Prisoner of Hope
Anchored in faith
Held captive by Your promises
Patiently waiting through the muck
Is not what I am
Prisoner of despair
Thrown by circumstances
Wondering if you are working
Thinking it’s all up to me
Is a more accurate description
I know Your ways are better
Yet I feel so justified in my pain
Complaining and stubbornness entice me
Yet lead me further away
Return to my fortress
Rescue me from this empty pit
Where I love to wallow
Lift my eyes to believe
That You will restore all I’ve lost
You are my only Hope
One Hungry Soul
