Monday's Mourning Ministry - Always ~Building 429






Monday's Mourning Ministry


Always


~Building 429






Always


Building 429



I was standing in the pouring rain

One dark November night

Fighting off the bitter cold

When she caught my eye

Her face was torn and her eyes were filled

And then to my surprise

She pulled out a photograph

And my heart just stopped inside

She said,


He would have been three today

I miss his smile, I miss his face


What was I supposed to say


But I believe always, always

Our Savior never fails

Even when all hope is gone

God knows our pain,

and His promise remains

He will be with you always


He was living in a broken world,

dreaming of a home

His heart was barely keeping pace

When I found him all alone

Remembering the way he felt

When his daddy said goodbye

Fighting just to keep the tears

And the anger locked inside

He's barely holding on to faith

But deliverance is on its way


'Cuz I believe always always

Our Savior never fails

Even when all hope is gone

God knows our pain,

and His promise remains

He will be with you always


Friend I don't know where you are

And I don't know where you've been

Maybe you're fighting for your life

Or just about to throw the towel in

But if you're crying out for mercy

If there's no hope left at all

If you've given everything you've got

And you're still about to fall

Well hold on, hold on, hold on


Cuz I believe always always

Our Savior never fails

Even when all faith is gone

God knows our pain and His promise remains

Always, Always

He will be with you always

He will be with you always

He will be with you always


He will be with you













Thank you to my friend, grieving mother Danielle Helms for the picture of the cross in the clouds, reminding her of God's faithfulness...

Monday's Mourning Ministry - Hold My Heart ~Tenth Avenue North







Monday's Mourning Ministry


Hold My Heart


~Tenth Avenue North





Hold My Heart


Tenth Avenue North



How long must I pray, must I pray to You?

How long must I wait, must I wait for You?

How long 'til I see Your face, see You shining through?

I'm on my knees, begging You to notice me.

I'm on my knees, Father will you turn to me?


One tear in the driving rain,

One voice in a sea of pain

Could the maker of the stars

Hear the sound of my breakin' heart?

One light, that's all I am

Right now I can barely stand

If You're everything You say You are

Won't You come close and hold my heart


I've been so afraid, afraid to close my eyes

So much can slip away before I say goodbye.

But if there's no other way, I'm done asking why.

Cuz I'm on my knees, begging You to turn to me

I'm on my knees, Father will you run to me?


One tear in the driving rain,

One voice in a sea of pain

Could the maker of the stars

Hear the sound of my breakin' heart?

One light, that's all I am

Right now I can barely stand

If You're everything You say You are

Won't You come close and hold my heart.


So many questions without answers, Your promises remain

I can't sleep but I'll take my chances to hear You call my name

To hear You call my name


One tear in the driving rain,

One voice in a sea of pain

Could the maker of the stars

Hear the sound of my breakin' heart?

One light, that's all I am

Right now I can barely stand

If You're everything You say You are

Won't You come close and hold my heart.


Hold my heart, could you hold my heart?

Hold my heart.





Today's song, "Hold My Heart" is in appreciation to Danielle Helms who recommended the song through Twitter this week. Amazingly, I first met Danielle through Twitter, and she has become one of my very best friends through our grieving over our girls together. Danielle's Kristin and my Merry Katherine were killed only two weeks and two days apart in 2006. My heart is especially heavy for my friend as she grieves her "teen angel" Kristin this week on what would have been her 20th birthday. My heart and prayers are with you especially this week sweet Danielle, "Sister in The Bond Of The Endless Ache!"



In Honor of

Kristin Danielle Helms

6/5/1990 - 7/17/2006

Danielle did an amazing job on this news report, in honor of her 16-yr-old daughter and in hopes of saving some other precious children's lives. Despite her horrific grieving, Danielle shares with the world how her precious daughter's life was destroyed. It's horrifying and incredibly sad to know that even a child born and raised in such a loving Christian home can be susceptible to an internet predator pretending to care for her. Danielle wrote on her 5/31/10 Twitter site:
