There is an empty, hollow place
within the confines of my heart.
I would like fill it up with grace
Without it being torn apart.

There’s something missing in my soul
which I just can’t seem to find.
I wish someone would take control
of my battered, tortured mind.

I have cried out all my anguish
yet my spirit, still it grieves.
While my body sits in languish,
I know not what my whole needs...

Help me...

I have been here, this place of which you speak. I tried to fill that hole and nothing fit, until someone told me it was "The God hole" and only His passionate Love and His healing Grace could fill it. So I gave it a try, and it fits me perfectly! Love, Ellie< !signature-->

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

I too have been where you are at and I can tell you that if you give yourself over to trusting in the Lord then the peace that you seek will find it's way to your soul and heart.  I am still getting used to this but I can tell you that I have more peace now than I have in a long time.  It is not easy at first but once you find yourself truely giving over then you too will find a calmness slowly seeping in.  God bless you and I will add you to my prayers.

There is an empty, hollow place
which, truly, only God can fill
and as we daily seek His face
We know that He always will.

He holds the missing puzzle piece
And gently puts it in its slot.
We get that piece when we release
to the Peace Jesus Christ has got.

For your anguish, I'm most sad
and know grief has but a season.
Rejoice, my broken heart be glad
in faith, God needs not a reason.


Love ya, Bob <><

Beautifully written fervent prayer.  Ask, believing you have received.  Then the hard part, let go and let God.
