my own little world

0 posted 2003-11-03 08:50 PM


Jesus...I am in so much pain
I wish that I could make things right
and for you the whole world gain
am I still dreaming in blinded sight?
or are you really here with me?
Jesus...I need you to carry me
through the storms and darkness ahead
will you carry me -
when I'm crying myself to sleep in bed?
will you lift up my soul -
when it  seems as if I've hit at rock bottom
of a deep dungeon hole?
and if the sky seems dark today
will you be the light that melts away
every single tear
every single fear
that weakens and burdens me
and help this blinded soul to see?
oh Jesus...how do I go on
when all I have in this world
is a tattered book
and a weak spirit of empty passion...
will you help me find a reason
to live another day
before my last wish is to pass away
into the everlasting doom
where Grace has found no room
and the angels of light stay far far away
but where the prince of darkness will forever stay
help me Jesus
hold me
keep me hanging on

Love hurts as bad as it feels good.
