Never Alone
Deep down inside of me
I continue to fall apart
With every breath I take
I feel each scar within my heart
The hurt is in my eyes
but I guess no one sees
How much what he does
Is bringing me to my knees
Each day when I get up
I paint a mask on my face
I dry my tears and add a smile
But the hurt I can't erase
I feel like I am lost and alone
Within the story of my own life
Everywhere I seem to turn
I find more pain like a knife
Now I have found myself
Knealing by my bed
I cradle my tear stained face
and these are the words I said
Dear God I am so afraid
Of my past and what will come next
I have tried to fight htis on my own
But failed at my own test
I am not as strong
As I had hoped to be
I am growing weary now
And pray that you will help me
I'm putting my faith into your hands
For I need you to carry me now
Help me find a reason to believe
Lord help me to be strong somehow
With you all things are possible
I continue to believe inside
And it is then that I can feel
Your wings wrap around me from behind
As a single tear falls down my face
In your arms I feel at home
I realize you were always with me
And I never was alone
