When Darkness Came Into My Soul

When Darkness Came Into My Soul
A day of perpetual disturbances
The grip and might of the Almighty 
pressing hard upon me
Bringing reality to the choice of choosing worldly 
comforts rather than His gracious hand

Void of peace and sweet rest
For just a moment the loin-wrenched pain of 
His absence The turn away of His gaze
Eruptions of forsakenness and forlornness yearning once again just for a look for a gaze

Comfort my soul, O Holy One
I have sinned and feel the sting of death, release me from the pangs of agony
Wash me with thy forgiveness that I may again rejoice in thy presence with fullness of joy
