Take Me Now Away

Take me now away from trouble I alone have brought to be Lead my spirit through the darkness Wash my body in the sea Take me now away from crying From my bondage set me free Til I'm no longer scared of dying Let the waves crash over me Take me now away from hiding From the dawning of the day I'm so tired, Lord, of fighting Won't you take me now away Take me now away from feeling In my pain and misery That in despair I could find refuge Won't you take it now from me Take me now away from seeing No way out and no way home I can't find my way to heaven I can't roll away the stone So take me now away from trouble From the worst that I can be Lead my spirit though the darkness From the darkest part of me
