Shield Me

SHIELD ME This puddle of tears I stand in, my troubles of rage breaks forth like madness into the world. Only to show the people in the world what I have become. A need for change shouts from the top of my lungs, free me, I am a man that did many wrong. Save me, dear Lord save me. My path is broken and it’s hard to carry on. I know I am sufficient for your love, my days of darkness I seek no more, let me shine forth by the kindness of my heart. Silver and gold became their gods, a change of life is not within their hearts. From the deepest of me pull it out of me, the feeling of love, to care for one another, fighting for a change because you care. I know father I have falling, falling over and over again. I fall, I get back up and pray to you once again. Shield me.
