| Dark and dreary curtains of pain hang over my soul's door No light of joy or happiness shines through anymore, Departure of this life is not easy Broken is the foundation of this solemn pit, which I hide. For I long for a day of light and happiness... I long to see my life free from this bondage of loneliness... My end shall come soon if I do not see the light For I am blind to the light, And lost in the dark... I long for a candle to burn vigil in my heart... To lead the way to the throne... But this I do not find... For the light is to faint, And my tears are too great... And my legs are so weak from running... I try to carry on, Not knowing where to turn I look to you in deep despair, Asking forgiveness unto my soul... For I lost my way And did not turn to you... You called my name, and I didn't stop to listen... You held a light so bright for me to overcome the darkness, But I ran in the wrong direction... I now see your point,and now I see the light... I'm sorry I was blind... A fool I was... I didn't have a heart, or a soul that would grow... My life is changing, I can see a light... I can feel the weight of my sin lifted away... I now am free... We walk together, just you and I... I listen to your voice... And mine eyes are not so blind... You wrap your arms around me, and say I am yours... I hold on to you, and you save my soul from Hell... I look to you daily,asking for your guiding hand To wash away the pain, Slow I now stand. Copyright � 2001 Dawn L. S. |
