			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The darkness refuses to lift<br />
In the deep of this valley<br />
I cannot seem to sift<br />
Through all my countless folly</p>
<p>The troubled sea will not calm<br />
Inside this troubled heart<br />
This injury has no healing balm<br />
For a remedy I know not where to start</p>
<p>I want to become bitter against You<br />
To blame You for my mishaps<br />
But you know exactly what to do<br />
For You are the one Who guides my steps</p>
<p>The future looks so dark and cold<br />
But you contain it in Your hand<br />
You shaped it from the days of old<br />
And will bring me to the Promised Land</p>
<p>I am fearful and frightened at the dark clouds<br />
And wonder if I will survive<br />
But before you all storms must bow<br />
And you will bring me through this alive</p>
<p>So bring comfort to this fallen child<br />
Let me turn from this doubt and sin<br />
For even though all hope is killed<br />
In You I find hope again</p>
