This song to me depicts the struggle we have with knowing if God is there. We desire to know God intimately, yet this world distracts us and we feel so distant from Him at times. We cry out for Him and at times it feels like He doesn't even care. Yet the truth is, we usually are to blame for the distance. We take God for granted and throw him on the back burner. We lose patients quickly and start down the wrong path and do not listen for the promptings that God gives us. But. He will come again. Just like summer comes from winters cold, God will always be with us even in the cold and eventually turn our mourning into singing! Our sorrow into joy.
