Leap

Yes me I did leap
Can't determine 
How high

I see now
The path
My troubles are nigh

That fog in my way
Those chains 
wearing me down

The locks they 
have crumbled
Grown Rusty and brown

That drama in my life 
The story oh 
so old

Has worn out its welcome
It's blood 
has run cold

Dark clouds they are over
I have come 
into the light

Welcome morning 
Goodbye to the
Night

The sun brings its heat
Bring its shine to 
my face 

My recovery is working
Many things fall
In place

The battle never over
Dark times I 
will see 

Yet I have the 
armor and weapons
To help me

I have my guides
And oh how
I've grown

I finally see
Do not walk it
Alone 

I am grateful 
And humble 
And happy to be

Walking beside
Not behind knowing
Thee are with me
