stayed like this all day.
Lost my home and my wife,
could not find my way.
Found myself out on the street,
lost and all alone.
Living in a rundown tent,
a place that I called home.
Standing on the corner,
looking for a drink.
Just to live in fog again,
so I'd not have to think.
Remembering the past,
and all the things I'd. done.
So full of sin from ye1sterday,
must hide from the Holy One.
"He must be mean and evil,
"He makes me hurt all day.
"He puts me down again, again,
with everything I'd say!"
Stuck in the Hell; I was in,
where I couldn't feel all right.
Punished for the sins I'm in,
I die both day and night.
I reached the path I was in,
now I'll end my life.
All the pain I'll feel no more,
all my pain and strife.
I sit here in my darkest night,
ready to pass away,
I close my eyes and say a prayer,
this is what I say.
"I'm sorry God I know you're mad,
at what I'm going to do.
But I can't live like this no more.
this Hell YouI put me through."
A voice said:
"I am here with you right now,
I've always watched you sin.
I've sent my Son to help you out,
of the way that you have been.
I will take the sins your in,
I'll take them all away.
I was never mad at you,
I heard you when you prayed.
I'm not here to punish you.
I love you the most.
You are my precious child,
I'll send the Holy Ghost."
As the voice talked on I felt
a weight lifting from me.
I felt my sins disappear.
Finally, I was free!
Suddenly I noticed this:
I was not alone.
God had touched me, and I knew
He would take me home.
I've held my head up high since then,
happy as can be.
God loves, is not punishing;
He's always here with me
