Why are you downcast, O my soul?
And what has caused you to become troubled within me?
Did He not say that His grace would be sufficient for us?
Is there something else that we’re looking for?
Why are you so weary, O my soul?
And what has caused you to become anxious within me?
Did He not tell us that His joy would be our strength?
Is there something else that is fueling us?
Why are you in such despair, O my soul?
And what has caused you to become disturbed within me?
Did He not warn us that “all that is seen” is perishing?
Is that where we thought our help would come from?
If He is for us, who or what can be against us?
If He is with us, how can we be without hope?
