all the bitter weary ways
endless striving day by day
you barely have the strength to pray
in the valley low
how hard your fight has been
how deep the pain within
wounds that no one else has seen
hurts too much to show
all the doubt you’re standing in between
And all the weight that brings you to your knees
He knows, He knows
every hurt and every sting
He has walked the suffering
He knows, He knows
let your burdens come undone
lift your eyes up to the One
Who knows…He knows
we may faint and we may sink
feel the pain and near the brink
but the dark begins to shrink
when you find the one who knows
the chains of doubt that held you in between
one by one are starting to break free
every time that you feel forsaken
every time that you feel alone
He is near to the brokenhearted
every tear He knows

He does know…He knows the last of our days and the beginning, and the number of hairs on our heads. He knows how much pain you can actually bear and He knows when it will end. You struggle with hard choices and exhausting circumstances…He knows and He wants to carry the struggles for you and He wants to help you make the right decisions. He knows….
He knows when you are walking in darkness and you desperately need His Light. All you have to do is ask. He knows what your deepest sin and secrets are. He will never tell, but He wants to hear them from you. He will only give you grace, forgiveness, mercy, and all the love you will ever need. He knows when you feel alone and when you feel the world is unfair. He is just and He fills every void you will ever feel.
He is pulling for you to win every battle. He is cheering you on as you reach the finish line of this life; and He has a place for you, with Him, forever, in eternity. He is singing over you daily and rejoicing over each victory in your life. He also sheds tears with you when you feel defeated.
He knows your heart (even when you don’t) and He loves you even when you don’t feel it. He is never far away and He will never, ever leave you! He is always for you! So that hard thing that you are dealing with? You know… the one you feel like you could never tell anyone? My friend, He knows and He is ready to step in and deliver you…just ask!
But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
Matthew 10:30
Even as the Father knows Me and I know the Father;
and I lay down My life for the sheep.
John 10:15
The secret things belong to the LORD our God,
but the things revealed belong to us and to our sons forever,
that we may observe all the words of this law.
Deuteronomy 29:29
It is He who reveals the profound and hidden things;
He knows what is in the darkness,
And the light dwells with Him.
Daniel 2:22
Let us pray:
Dear God, oh how amazing You are. You created each one of us in Your image and You know the intimate details of our lives. How comforting to know that we are never alone. Your hand is always there to hold, and You are willing to walk with us every day, never stopping. Thank You for loving us, for cheering for us, and for guiding us through this sometimes hard world. Because of You, we are always loved and we have a full abundant life. And when we don’t know, You do. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
