Hope for the Discouraged

I.
There are times I feel so unworthy
So bogged down and downright crushed
So ashamed to enter His presence
The guilt of sin, the broken trust

II.
What must I do to set things right?
Can God see my struggles? Hear my cries in the night?
Will he forgive me in spite of the mess?
My battered soul, will it find rest?

Chorus:
In Him I can live my life again
In Him I can sing and laugh in the rain
In Him there is hope and a future for me
In Him I will trust, he has set me free!

III.
Just trust in His boundless love for you
He sees your struggles, He’ll carry you through
Total surrender is what He demands
He’ll fix tomorrow, you’ll be safe in His hands

IV.
There are times you’ll be discouraged
When you succumb to temptation’s charms
But don’t ever think there is no hope
‘Cause Jesus cares, He awaits with open arms

(Repeat Chorus)

Bridge:
Grace… it’s nothing I deserve
Umpteenth chances… I really cannot understand
Why He… takes time to pick up the broken pieces of me

(Repeat Chorus 2x to fade)
