Light My Path

I lie desperate as a plant, planted in darkness,
searching for light!
Twisting, bending and stretching
Through this strife of life,
Searching for the eternal light.
I know that You know me my LORD,
Look at my suffering,
Look at my wounds and scars,
Inflicted upon me as I search and long for You.
Have mercy and shine the light upon me
Direct my blind self to the path of eternal life
To a life full of love, peace and serenity.
And even though i mature as a shapeless tree
I will rejoice for I have found the light-
The Light of Eternity.
