Tips for Writing Lament Poetry
EXCLUSIVE FREE DOWNLOAD — A Guided Resource for Writing Your Own Lament
This resource is available only to email subscribers. The Bible shows us what lament sounds like. From the Psalms to Lamentations, scripture models honest, gut-level expression before God. This free download helps you connect with that honesty and gives you a framework to write your own lament:
“O Lord, how long will you forget me? Forever? How long will you look the other way?” —Psalm 13:1
“I am worn out from sobbing. All night I flood my bed with weeping, drenching it with my tears.” —Psalm 6:6
“He has walled me in, and I cannot escape. He has bound me in heavy chains.” —Lamentations 3:7
