GOD HELD STRONG EVEN WHEN I WAS FAR GONE.
HE HELD TIGHT WHEN ALL I DID WAS RUN.
HE STOOD ALONE WHEN ALL OTHERS WERE GONE.
HE KEPT FIGHTING FOR MY SOUL,
EVEN THOUGH I CURSED HIM SO.
I COULD NOT LOOK AT WHAT I HAD BECOME,
BUT HE NEVER TURNED AWAY.
HE LOVED ME THE SAME EACH AND EVERY DAY,
HIS LOVE IS WHAT SAVED ME.
SAVED ME FROM A HELL, NOT ONLY ON THIS EARTH,
BUT A FIRE THAT WOULD HAVE BURNED ME
FOR ALL MY ETERNITY.
TO SAY THANK YOU SEEMS LIKE A CLICHÉ,
SO INSTEAD I WILL SERVE YOU THE REST OF MY DAYS.
TO LOVE AND ACCEPT THE WAY YOU HAVE ME,
IS THE GIFT I WILL SHARE WITH ALL HUMANITY.
THE GOLDEN STREETS I WILL SURELY SEE
AND REST WITH MY SAVIOR THROUGH ALL ETERNITY…………
