Lost and Found
I once was lost
in the dark, with high cost
unable to see, keeping distance
unwilling to be, holding resistance
upside down and turned inside out
nothing but empty and full of doubt
fighting with myself, not ever to win
diving deeper and darker, driven to sin
evil is hate & fear is the cause to fantasize
Faith is hope and love is grace you realize
into the night out of the dark once more
so much more than there was before
I am the way the truth & the light
born again, life after death
I once was lost now
I am found
