Heavenly Father

I’ve seen dark times felt like I was fading away
Life’s obstacles kept crushing me into the ground
Stuck in my lonely gloom with nothing left to say
I wondered if any hope could ever be found

When my summer sun had fallen into darkness
My voice of reason had faded into the night
I found myself alone facing this world’s harshness
Drowning in my emptiness till I saw your light

I look back now, at all those times of frustration
Wondering how and why it all ever happened
I must never again give in to temptation
Your love is truly all that can be imagined
