I walked in the light, once radiant and pure,
A heart bound to Heaven, steadfast and sure.
But the world called my name with a whisper so sweet,
And I stumbled away, lost in its deceit.
Now I stand in the shadows, a stranger to grace,
Chasing fleeting joy, a momentary embrace.
My heart cries out, but the silence is deep,
Have You forgotten, Lord, the soul You would keep?
I've tasted the life, I've felt the fire,
But the flame has grown dim, burned out by desire.
I've grasped at the winds, at the fleeting delight,
Only to find my soul torn in the night.
The echoes of my fall resound in the dark,
I reached for the stars, but they crumbled away,
Now I question if You'll ever hear me pray.
The storm may rage, You hold me fast,
In Your hands, my soul finds rest.
You've never given up,
In You, I find hope, in You, I'll grow.
