I Know Pain I Know Sorrow

Close your eyes if but for a moment
I know that you do not have much time
Two thousand years ago, yes you remember
God hung clothed in flesh, died for your sins and mine
He marched as a criminal to Calvary
Mocked and beaten then we nailed him to the tree
Are you still blind my child, can you not see
Your sin nailed him there, but he rose to free

I know that it has been hard for you lately my child
I know pain, I know sorrow, I know love
Even in the valley I'll be there with you
I am able to deliver you, so be strong

God, it feels like I'm in the desert
Been here forty days and going on forty nights
The devil's closing in to devour
I don't have much strength, I think I'm going to die

Wait, a shaft of light, yes there I see it
The end is near, the tunnel's not so deep
There is someone who has been here before me
He know's the way, yes he has eyes to see

I know that it has been hard for you lately my child
I know pain, I know sorrow, I know love
Even in the valley I'll be there with you
I am able to deliver you, so be strong

Think it not strange when you walk the path of sorrows our Lord has trod
We all have our share of burdens, we must all carry our cross
And I bear my share of scars from a battle, how can I sleep?
When it seems like the enemy is closing in we need to get down on our knees
And I bear no shame when I preach in Jesus' name
