When Aimless Violence Takes Those We Love

Author: Joy F. Patterson, 1931- Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 43:1-7 Lyrics: 1 When aimless violence takes those we love, when random death strikes childhood's promise down, when wrenching loss becomes our daily bread, we know, O God, you leave us not alone. 2 When passing years rob sight and strength and mind yet fail to still a strongly beating heart, and grief becomes the fabric of our days, dear Lord, you do not stand from us apart. 3 Our faith may flicker low, and hope grow dim, yet you, O God, are with us in our pain; you grieve with us and for us day by day, and with us, sharing sorrow, will remain. 4 Because your Son knew agony and loss, felt desolation, grief, and scorn and shame, we know you will be with us, come what may, your loving presence near, always the same. 5 Through long, grief-darkened days help us, dear Lord, to trust your grace for courage to endure, to rest our souls in your supporting love, and find our hope within your mercy sure.
