Trying to keep it real hope you all like it

Every now and then a day comes when I just can't find the light And I feel so dead inside But I just can't run . I want to believe But I don't know what's left in me, Lord I just can't run . So with all my might And with what strength is left inside, I run to the Light I run to the Light . And my bones are frozen cold There's no life left in my soul But I can't run away because I've no where else to go . Here I sit alone and crying Afraid to live yet afraid of dying Can I trust in someone that I can't see, And I want to believe Can You help me please? There's no place that You can't find me No place on earth that You are blind To this darkness in my soul that I try to hide . So with all my might And with what strength is left inside, I run to the Light I run to the Light . Then I come to still waters where You have always been And in spite of all my sin You still call me friend. You wash my soul with peace And my fears they melt away and I believe . . . That's good enough for me to face the brand new day . So with all my might And with what strength is left inside, I run to the Light I run to the Light

I wish that more of us would, "run to the light"; if we did, the world might be a much better place. Beautiful.
