This life we live has it's moments of trials and tribulations. There are days in my life when I feel so far from God. Days when I feel as if He's left me and the joy that once filled my heart is now running on empty. Why do these days come? The answer is simple, I lack Christ in my life. But God...through is everlasting mercy and compassion draws me to Himself once again. Through the great power of the Word He fills my cup so that it overflows! Oh, how wonderful is our Savior!
I love the LORD, for he heard my voice;
He heard my cry for mercy.
Because He turned His ear to me,
I will call on Him as long as I live.
The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came upon me;
I was overcome by trouble and sorrow.
Then I called on the name of the LORD :
Then I called on the name of the LORD :
"O LORD, save me!"
The LORD is gracious and righteous;
The LORD is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.
The LORD protects the simplehearted;
The LORD protects the simplehearted;
when I was in great need, He saved me.
Be at rest once more, O my soul,
Be at rest once more, O my soul,
for the LORD has been good to you.
For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death,
For you, O LORD, have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling,
that I may walk before the LORD...
that I may walk before the LORD...
PSALM 116: 1-9

This is a very good song, and happens to be my mom's favorite, too.
