I remember a time when I was down and out
When I couldn’t think of anything to be happy about
Didn’t have anyone I could trust… not even one friend
My life was so messed up I wanted it to end
Oh… But God!
I have done some things that I am not so proud of
Felt like I was in a battle but fighting with no gloves
I put my trust in people instead of the one above
Hurt some people I really cared about and loved
Oh… But God!
He didn’t come when I thought I was losing my mind
Nor when the world was being everything but kind
I was badly broken, confused and scared
I questioned his love for me and didn’t think he cared
Oh… But God!
He stepped in and showed me another way
Showed me I needed to get on my knees and pray
Pray for guidance and strength to survive in this earthly place
I am so grateful for His mercy and His grace
Oh…But God!
