Just below the surface
Not buried all that deep
Are memories once forgotten
Now remembered so I weep
Though I know they’re past
Each painful memory
Leaves my poor soul downcast
Engulfed in reverie
My only source of hope
Is knowing God’s compassion
With His love I can cope
Remembering His passion
He knows the pain I’ve endured
That surfaces out of the blue
Grace and comfort He’s assured
And abundant life anew
