Strength

So lost in the shallows
Of Humanity I breathe 
Left hand or right hand
Sometimes your choice
Cannot match the challenge 
Yet David took down Goliath
With but a single stone
Oh great spirit lead me
Through these troubled waters
Though they rise above me
Only you can rescue 
And keep my head up
For darkness seems consuming 
Be my light and beacon
Give me strength
And purpose to crusade
Among the giants 
I must face
Amen
