Japan Our Hearts Are With You

We keep seeing those heartbreaking photos
That fill the news each day
And we long to reach out and comfort you
But we can’t find the words to say.

We believers lift our prayers to Heaven
And ask God to bless and heal
And that to each hurting family
His love He would reveal.

We cannot say “We know how you feel”
For most have not known such pain as this
Which has caused so much of what you know
To have ceased in moments to exist.

Please forgive us if our attempts seem clumsy
And if we stumble over words of sympathy to you
For this is so beyond what we can comprehend
And we’re at a loss at just what to do.

But allow us to share our love and compassion
In whatever ways we are able to do
Because from the very depths of our hearts
We hurt for you.

We love your dear friends
And each day
For your healing and recovery
We pray.

Thena Smith
