Redemption

Broken i lie in ruin

My faith has crumbled

My body trembles in pain

No foundation no roof

Shelter i find in my desires

Truth and lies are all the same

My eyes cry no more

And my heart deserted

In the dark I cry out

Yet nothing comes out

As i lay my head to rest

Nightmares haunt me

Am I alone in this suffering?

Darkness is all around me

Loneliness drives me deeper

Into this addiction of mine

Pleasure is only a second

Yet this pain is endless!

My clothes are as rags

And my bones open to see

I broke down at your door

Cared me you did in love

You gave me clothes to wear

And a place to rest safely.

Truly I died that night

My body gave up my life

Yet You gave me yours.

All i knew meant nothing

So You taught me

All that’s truth in deed.

I looked back in fear

For i left a trail of mess

Yet You cleansed it all away

Warning me never to return

And told me to look forward

For safety lies only in You.

Love I found in your arms

Your leadership i now love

As I obey Your ways in full

You Heal me so I may grow

And guide me so i walk ahead

I have vision now, to live for you!

I have been redeemed in full

So i may live for You alone

Loving others as you loved me

I share my story to all

That they too may believe

In He who came for the broken!
