Away from the world and hidden from public view,
I exchange my weariness for His strength;
my weakness for His power;
my darkness for His light;
my problems for His solutions; my turmoil for His calm,
my hopes for His promises;
my afflictions for His balm of comfort;
my questions for His answers;
my confusion for His knowledge;
my doubt for His assurance;
my nothingness for His awesomeness;
the temporal for the eternal and the impossible for the possible.
I exchange my weariness for His strength;

my nothingness for His awesomeness;
the temporal for the eternal and the impossible for the possible.
