I read about Your promises And I still want to believe You've come through for the others Will you come through for me? I read about Your promises And I still want to believe Blinded by this present darkness Deafened by all of the noise I no longer feel Your presence I no longer hear Your voice Why must You punish me? What is it that I have done? Not only have I suffered But You took ones that I love Let Your Spirit raise me up Give me the strength to carry on My faith is fading quickly All I ask is: Lord, how long? I know that You can see all But God, why can't You see I'm thrown in the midst of lions And overwhelmed by the enemy They've come for me, They've come for me Satan scours for the weak But it's Christ who makes us strong Resist the devil he will flee But this has gone for far too long If I can’t find solace in life Then eternity will provide relief Lord, please increase my faith I believe, help my unbelief If I can’t find solace in life Then eternity will provide relief Lord, please increase my faith I believe, help my unbelief As I face these storms of life Grant me the blessed assurance To know this too shall pass Lord, how long will this season last? Grant me the blessed assurance To know this too shall pass Let Your Spirit raise me up Give me the strength to carry on My faith is fading quickly All I ask is: Lord, how long? Let Your Spirit raise me up Give me the strength to carry on My faith is fading quickly All I ask is: Lord, how long? Let Your Spirit raise me up Give me the strength to carry on My faith is fading quickly All I ask is: Lord, how long?
