A Way Back

In the dark, I have fallen

Lighting my own way

With my dimly lit candle

The world looking utmost gray

Forsaking who I was 

Your words, I no longer heard

Listening to the lies

Forgetting your very word

I never felt so alone

As I did without you

Being the anchor of my soul

Losing sight of all I knew

Humbly to the ground, I fall 

On my knees, In tears 

I begin to pray 

Surrounded with all my fears

Lord, can you hear me? 

I need thee, I really can’t do 

This alone, I feel so alone 

There is no hope for me, I knew

I have strayed and am lost 

Hast thou forgotten me 

as I had forgotten you 

This load I can’t bare, I’m not free

My dear sweet child 

I have not forgotten thee 

You are so precious 

And matter so much to me

I have been calling 

Your name all the day

And all the nigh 

Come listen and stay

When thou hast said 

“I feel so alone” 

I held you in my arms 

Wiping the tears from your very cheekbone 

I have been at the door 

Waiting for you to turn 

it, With my arms open 

Awaiting your return

I am always here for you 

When you felt you couldn't go on 

I have carried you in my arms. 

Giving you the strength to walk on

Give me your pain 

Tell me your fears 

Let me heal your spirit 

And be the one that hears

Come back to me, dear child 

You are worth so much to me 

There is much in store for you 

Let me set you free

Lord, I am turning my life to you 

I feel now, you were always there 

Willing and ready 

To listen to my every care

You are my light 

My beacon in the storm 

Lighting the way 

Holding your hand to me, so warm

Relight my way, dear Lord 

I turn my life over to you.  

 I feel at peace now

Feeling the spirit to help me through.
