Still There

I turned my back on you and went astray I didn't need you anymore, so I walked away I never even saw you, it's like you weren't there Every time I tried talking to you, I was speaking to thin air It was so easy to blame you when nothing went right So I left you, out of mind-out of sight You said you loved me and you'd always be here You told me to ask and you would appear One night while I was crying I felt a familiar touch Then a voice whispered, "I never left, I love you to much" You were with me the whole time, right by my side Heard every prayer I prayed, felt every tear I cried Even though I couldn't see you, you still held my hand You are a merciful God, and now I understand So I pray to you tonight Lord to forgive my doubtful heart I'm praying to be saved, I praying for a new start
