In You Alone


There are times in every person's life, when we feel we just can't go on. I have had several of said such times in my own journey of faith (and just life in general), and felt I couldn't go on. This song has been such an inspiration to me. I thought of it tonight while in a difficult situation...."when I reach the end-You are just beginning". I felt like I was at the end of what I as a human being could bear, I am thankful that I can give my burdens and the daily challenges that I face to the Lord, and that I "can soar of borrowed wings".  My mom was also there for me tonight, and it was good to talk to her and she listened to all of my frustrations and...was just terrific! (Love you momma!)
So, I guess I just felt like sharing this, and hope the song can be of encouragement to you.  Please keep me in your prayers, as the mission field I am on is not easy.



When I am weak, You carry every burden
When I'm alone, You're just a breath away
When I am restless, You're the one who stills me
And where I fail, You always stay the same

In You alone, I'm lifted up to heaven
In You alone, I soar on borrowed wings
When I reach the end, You are just beginning
In You alone, I find all that I need

When I am lost, You rescue me from danger
And when I fall, You pick me up again
When I resist, You love past my defenses
And though I stray, You're patient to the end

In You alone, I'm lifted up to heaven
In You alone, I soar on borrowed wings
When I reach the end, You are just beginning
In You alone, I find all that I need

  1. Em,
    You are stronger then you give yourself credit for and God will never give you more then you can bear. I can not possibly know all that you're dealing with on a daily basis but please know that I think you are a very special young lady!
    You are making an impact where you are, we just never know when the seeds we plant will sprout. (that's the frustrating part!)
    I love you and pray for you daily!
    BIG HUGS!!
