My Rock, My Rope – Richard Thompson

In my pain, in my darkness
Is my comfort and hope
In my loss and in my sorrow
Is my rock, is my rope

Oh give me the strength to bear it
Oh give me the strength to see
That this is not forever
But what must be, must be

In my cloud of illusion
Give me some way I can steer
Through the shoals and the shipwrecks
Till I see my way is clear

Oh let me be uplifted
Oh take this weight from me
And heal me from my demons
And forever I’ll be free

In my pain and in my darkness
Is my comfort and hope
In my loss and in my sorrow
Is my rock and my rope

Is my rock
Is my rock
Is my rock
Is my rock
