Yahweh Shammah (The Lord is There)

Death, Suffering, Pain
I have had enough!
Emptiness is covering me
Eating away at me,
Little is left of me

Emptiness it’s making me
Like one of them
Them who feel like they’re alone
Them who feel like there’s no hope

A redeemer lives so I’ve been told
I need some one to save me
From this evil place called planet Earth
Full of pain and little hope

“God!” I cry praying his holy name
Begging His forgiveness His mercy and His grace
“My God! My Savior! El Shadday!
God Almighty is by my side

A spirit of peace comes over me
Making it so I can see
See the path He’s set for me

El Elyon God most high
Has given me my perfect sight
Sight to see what He can do
Sight to see what I must do

If there are times you feel this too
One name for God is best for you
Through the times you feel alone
Like He’s just up there on His throne
Remember His name, the name
Yahweh Shammah
(The Lord is there)

      Thanks

      The words you didnt understand are different names for God. El Shaddy means, God Almighty, El Elyon means, God Most High, and Yahweh Shammah (my favorite) means, The Lord Is There. Just cureous do you know Christ as your personal savior. if not you dont have to wright back but i would like to tell you about Him. (please forgive me if i ofend you)
      P.S. i probibly spelled alot of words wrong
