Hallelujah Blues

You say that your tired, kinda let down
A little bit broken, wearing a frown
no joy, feeling blue, alone, set afloat
let down, Kinda sad, or sunk like a boat

Your get up and go has got up and gone
Your feet lost their dance, your voice no more song
Your emotions are raw, and blinking back tears
Your days feel like months, and the months feel like years

You put on a smile, trying to hide
The sad lonely feeling your feeling inside
you tuck them away, but you know they are there 
Like the beat of your heart, and with each breath of air

Who understands, who feels your pain
The one who made sunshine, also made rain
Who knows your suffering, what you've been through
There is one who knows, Because He suffered too

He hung on a cross, felt the disgrace
carried the burden for the whole human race
betrayed and alone, battered and bruised
Jesus knows what its like to be used.

You may feel alone, but he’s always there
You may think no one does, but Jesus, He cares
Your smile can’t hide the pain from Him
Jesus sees all that is outside, and in

He is the answer for every tear
Every heartache, and every fear
He can reach the darkest place
Infuse it with light, fill it with grace

So don’t be ashamed to carry a cross
Its okay to be sad, feel alone, suffer loss
Feeling down in the dumps, alone, kinda blue
That is okay, Jesus cried too.

But joy in the morning, comes after the night
The grave in the darkness was answered with light
The blind man was blind, before he could see
And jesus will answer the sadness in me
