Lord, Remind Me

Remind me, Lord

Remind me when she's crying to me and I can't stop it

I can't stop him from bruising her and leaving her broken

As if the marks marring her flesh are a sign or a token

Of fatherly love

Remind me, Lord

Remind me when his twisted legs can barely carry him

Home and he can never run for a bus or a train

Without falling and having someone tease or call him

Names and that's on an every day basis

Remind me, Lord

Remind me when she cuts her wrists so deep her vitals weaken

Her blood shows me what she's hiding without even

Speaking and she's too afraid to have someone

Investigate the case

Remind me, Lord

Remind me when he stops believing You exist

Because of death, so many friends who have been

Taken from this world without explanation and

He's left here alone

Remind me, Lord

Remind me when I feel like You have left us

To die at the top of a mountain or on a roadside

Remind me while we struggle with our grief and woe

Pain and suffering, cuts and blows

Remind me when we're crying in the middle of the night

Remind me when nothing seems to be alright

Remind me when we die in the wilderness lands

That you've still got the whole world in Your hands
