I was running from all my problems trying so hard to hide,
Feeling each day that I died alittle more inside,
I wasn't humble I was self absorbed and full of Pride,
I was going it alone living just one big lie,
Suicide often crossed my mind each day,
I didn't know where to turn to make this pain go away,
Then one morning I had had enough,
Of all the bad in my life and awful stuff!
I began to cry,
A cry so loud and fierce, I thought I was actually going to die,
Then I began to scream to God Why? Why?
In my heart,
I heard the Lord say, Grasp my hand right now my child, and I will give you a new start!
Come on do it now,
I will show you how,
To have a life,
Free of all evil worldly strife,
Tears now drying leaving no more trace,
For I had just heard from Jesus and felt him touch my heart and face!
It wasn't a dream,
Even though that's what it did seem,
I picked myself up now from the floor,
Thanking him, Praising Him, For he I do so ADORE!
I felt so cleansed like I was brand new!
Because Jesus knew just what to do,
For a lowly sinner like me,
He heard every word, he heard every plea!
Taking care of me in my crisis then,
and in my new life with He that I did begin!
