Heard

At the moment of despair
when you are gasping for air
when darkness is all you can see
remember Me

When it is all too much to bear
and the burden seems so unfair
when the weight is just too much for you
I am with you

When you feel each step is one too far
and you wish you could collapse where you are
when you are brought low
I will know

I will lift you
I will light your way
I will never fail you
if you will trust My grace

When you are at the end
when all you need is a friend
when everything seems too much to do
someone is praying for you

and I am listening.
