This song shares my personal experience with depression, despair and defeat. Those who have suffered with these feelings will understand. How painful when we feel, as did David in the Bible....
"My God, My God, why have You forsaken me? Why are You so far from helping me, and from the word of my moaning. O My God, I cry in the daytime, but you do not hear; And in the night season, and am not silent." Psalm 22:1 & 2
Immediately after that, David wrote :
The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restore my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Psalm 23: 1-3
There is hope....
a ladder i can climb
( 3:56)
words & music by Beth Williams
i'm down a little too low
or the road is just too high
got no way to go
out of this creek bed that is dry
send me a ladder or throw me
a line
send me a ladder i can climb yea
spinning wheels
kickin' hot dust in the air
you'd think by now i would know
spinning don't get me nowhere
send me a ladder or throw me
a line
send me a ladder i can climb
i've tried and i've tried and
i've tried,
what else can i do?
i'm tired i'm tired i'm tired
of waiting on you ...yea yea yea
i've got my hands up
so would you please be so kind
as to tell little miss lady luck
it sure nuff would be fine if she could
