For the Rest of My Life

Blinded by fear, I lost faith in all things
Angrily and without hope, I let go of all my dreams
Believing whole-heartedly, that I could never love again
Entering into an evil world, of Un-Godly sin
At the price of others, I picked up the pieces and moved on
Became a different person, lost in darkness I had never known
Alone and bitter, I lost myself along the way
Not knowing this person I'd become, dragged me to my knees to pray
He heard a deeper cry, that I wouldn't dare breathe
Not long after, He sent a precious angel to me
Truly happy, my smile comes from deep inside
God willing, I will hold him For The Rest of My Life
