‘Als God goed is, waarom gebeurt er dan zoveel verschrikkelijks?’ Met deze vraag lopen veel christenen én niet-christenen rond. Soms kan het lijken alsof God expres zijn ogen sluit of zelfs actief bijdraagt aan ellendige gebeurtenissen. Chris Llewellyn - frontman van Rend Collective - ziet deze ellende ook en werd door het Bijbelboek Klaagliederen geïnspireerd hier eerlijk over te zijn tegenover God.
Lord will You weep with me
I don't need answers all I need is to know that You care for me,
Hear my plea
Are you even listening?
Lord I will wrestle with Your heart, but I won't let You go
You know I believe
Help my unbelief
Yet I will praise You
yet I will sing of Your name
Here in the shadows, I'll lift up an offering of praise
What was true in the light is still true in the dark,
You're good and You're kind and You care for this heart
Lord I believe you weep with me
Part the seas
Lord make a way for me
Here in the midst of my lament I have faith yes I still believe
You love me
Your plans are to prosper me
You're working everything for good even when I can't see
You know I believe
Help my unbelief
Yet I will praise You
yet I will sing of Your name
Here in the shadows, I'll lift up an offering of praise
What was true in the light is still true in the dark,
You're good and You're kind and You care for this heart
Lord I believe you weep with me
Turn my lament into a love song
Turn my lament into an anthem
