Lost in contemplation
I'm distracted by recent events
far away, yet near in my heart
helpless I am, hopeless I am
as images of devastation pass by my eyes
swirls of questions cloud by mind
too big to ask, too big to answer
unable to hear
unable to discern
your voice
somewhere, you are there
this I know for sure
it's just that I can't see you
through all the pain
the fog of sorrows
the din of screams
the heaviness of death
God be God
God be great
God be gracious and merciful
God be quick to heal and save
So many brothers and sisters
lost beneath the rubble in your
beautiful country of Haiti
God come quickly
to the suffering ones, the poor ones, in Haiti
God,... come and cry
