Light in darkness

You found me in the pit I dug myself in. I was so lost,but then I got found- tide up by chains so tight I couldn't make a sound.

It took all I had to just try to breath,but underneath the weight of darkness -Jesus You alone saw and saved me.

In the depth of my despair cutting my arms from beginning to end, I watched the blood pool, crying out for death. I swallowed a thousand pills, but still my torment would not end.

Jesus you sent a hand to save me, shoving her fingers down my throat. Angry, why would you do that! Why?! I want to die -Just leave me alone!

Depression took me, it covered me up. Guilt consumed me- it ate me all up!

I remembered the abuse, the beatings I took. Get out of my house she said! You little whore and devils friend!

The hell I lived with, I didn't want that for my child- but the abortion I went through destroyed my entire mind.

Bent and broken by guilt and shame, twisted and warped by the pain. I ran and ran- I ran far away. No where to hide, no where to stay but wrecked by pain in every possible way!

Demons tortured and tormented me, voices I'd hear- You're a piece of shit,never good enough - You won't amount to anything - You don't deserve love!

A few more pills, drugs came and went. The parties didn't stop- I was at my witts end. Cutting some more, still hiding the pain. This was my life, darkness was my friend.

Jesus you didn't give up- You didn't let me go. You fought my demon's, You stood by my side.

Day in and night out -it was Your arms that held me every night I cried.

You saved me Father,took away my fear- Your love Tour grace ended my despair. You poured Your light into my darkest nights- Your mercy, Your Power -You alone gave me back my life!

I owe You everything, Jesus my Saviour My King. In You alone now I have everything- My Alpha and Omega, my Beginning and my end. My First love I found You- You Alone my Best friend.

I praise through the storms with my hands held High,even when tears fall,even when I sigh. My day still bright though clouds sometimes gloom. For You alone Jesus there is always room.

My heart is Yours and You are mine

With You in my life I know for a fact, I will always be more than fine.

Perfect peace I have now, You have given me. Thank You Jesus for living and saving me. Thank You Jesus for never letting me down. Thank You Jesus for everything
