To know where I'm going yet have miles to go.
To be completely lost but certain I'll make it home.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To choose death in order to gain eternal life.
To embrace life fully, knowing that every day I am dying.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To trawl the depths of darkness to find in its heart God's light.
To be light to the world in the brilliance of my blackest pain.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To surrender my entire will and find authentic freedom.
To be bound by my relationships beyond earth unto heaven.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To keep on loving those who are 'undeserving' and 'ungrateful'.
To be loved wholeheartedly despite my obvious unworthiness.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To feel the pain of others until my heart bleeds with them.
To be borne on the back of my crucified Christ.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To celebrate with joy in the midst of abject desolation.
To mourn the bittersweet ephemerality of life's peak moments.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To be ridiculed and persecuted for my unwavering fidelity.
To inspire the faith of one man although I've failed him time after time.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To experience His power made perfect in my weakness.
To be humbled when I am reminded all I have is not mine.
It is my sorrow and my bliss
To witness that all things are possible with God.
To live in a world where most don't believe there is a God.
