What of me, Lord? What of me? 

What of me, Lord? What of me? When shall I have that which You have promised me?

 Am I doomed to suffer lack? Why do You punish me so?

 In my anger, I react as a child reacts, 

I cover my ears so as not to hear, and clothe myself with unbelief.

 I am estranged from my God, whose attention I so desperately need.

 Sorrow is my companion. I sup with misery.

 Has my Heavenly Father somehow forgotten me?

 Out of the anguish of my soul, I cry, 

 What of me, Lord? What of me? When shall I have that which You have promised me?

 The Lord's answer thunders within my heart and outwardly I begin to tremble and quake.

O ye of little faith! Why do you trouble me with your tears?

 Why do you foolishly heed the voice of Fear?

 You confess vain thoughts, and believe not My Word.

 It is you, who allows your circumstances to estrange you from Me.

 Am I a man that I should forget?

 Come let us reason together, saith the Lord.

 Let me reveal to you, the level; to which, you have been deceived.

 Have you humbled yourself before Me?

 And out of the spirit of Truth within you answer Me these things:

 Where is My glory? Where is My praise?

 Shouldn't you be giving me these things even on the worst of days?

 Have you sought Me in the silence of submission?

 Have you cast off the yoke of Anger? Were you still?

 Did you wait upon the perfection of your faith?

 And by patience did you receive,

 The glory of God manifested for all to see?

 Where is your voice O child of pride? Answer Me!

 What of the many ways that I have set you free?

 What of the priceless hidden truths, I have revealed in my word, to bring you nearer to Me? 

 Think upon your hopes and visions and dreams.

 Is it not I, who have given you these?

 So declare war on Doubt and simply believe!

 Trouble your heart no more with wants and needs! 

 Know that I am God, and if I have said it, so shall it be!

 Then no longer will you ask: 

What of me, Lord? What of me?
