Lord I Write To You

Lord I write to you...

For this is the only 
way I know how
to get through to 
you.

Lord can you
hear me ?

I'm dying inside,
I'm tired of lies.

Living in sin 
is my appetite.

I beg you 
to help me !!

I beg you to 
save me, from 
the evil within 
that suffocates 
me.

I can't no longer 
withstand the devils 
wrath upon my soul.

I feel so alone,
lost without no
hope.

Come on in
and rescue me.

Let me feel your
love inside of me.

Cleanse my heart,
erase all of my fears.

End my pain of 
loneliness.

I wanna reign in 
your happiness,
be a part of your 
tenderness.

Glorify me,
baptize me 
in your purity.

I wanna see 
heaven through
your eyes.

Feel your presence 
in my life.

Because of you,
I have another chance 
to be whole again...

And this time,
I won't let the 
devil win !!

I won't let him
tempt me anymore !!

I will not let sin
manipulate my 
life.

I will not forsake 
you my Lord.

For I finally 
understand 
your sacrifices,
risking it all to 
save my life.

Amen.
