Holding On To Faith

A mother a daughter a sister a wife 
So much accomplished in such a short life 
To hit rock bottom all alone 
It's not what I thought I would have known 
I pray to God that he shines his light 
So I can get comfort through out the night 
He grants me a new day with the sun beaming down 
But I feel like I'm on a merry go round 
Ups and down and all around 
feels like I'm walking on unsoiled ground 
With hope in mind and faith at heart 
I know God will grant me a brand new start
