Place In This World

It's been a long time since I've been so burdened for something yet, I can't completely figure out what it is.  I've ended (or just begun) my evening with such a heavy heart and with tears and tears of hurt and anguish and uncertainty.  The best and only way I can explain it at this point is with the words from this song.  It was written by Michael W. Smith 30 years ago.  Who knew (only The Lord) that a song released in 1984 would be so spot on word for word my thoughts and feelings at this moment in 2014.

"Place In This World"

The wind is moving
But I am standing still
A life of pages
Waiting to be filled

A heart that's hopeful
A head that's full of dreams
But this becoming
Is harder than it seems

Feels like I'm
Looking for a reason
Roamin' through the night to find
My place in this world
My place in this world
Not a lot to lean on
I need your light to help me find
My place in this world
My place in this world

If there are millions
Down on their knees
Among the many
Can you still hear me

Hear me asking
Where do I belong?
Is there a vision
That I can call my own?

Show me, I'm
Looking for a reason
Roamin' through the night to find
My place in this world
My place in this world
Not a lot to lean on
I need your light to help me find
My place in this world
My place in this world

Lookin' for a reason
Roamin' through the night to find
My place in this world
My place in this world
Not a lot to lean on
I need your light to help me find
My place in this world
My place in this world

Lookin' for a reason
Roamin' through the night to find
My place in this world
My place in this world
