Picked Up

Alone in the dark I've never felt so apart He was out of sight Disappeared in the night When I awoke I was in a weird place He was a stranger With a familiar face He picked me up After I was down He had a smile I had a frown He was strong willed Could not be broken I was enthralled I had not spoken When he walked away I had nothing to say He had shown me the way I was out of the fray Free to walk Free to talk A new life Without strife Eternally bound To god's sound Now follow along Can you see?
