Shadow- surrounds me, covering the world like a Shroud,
Seeds- from the abyss, trying to plant within my soul.

Clouding- my mind, Drawing me further into darkness,
No hope- I have, light seeming not to exist,

Lost in darkness, a glimmer of light catches my eye.

True light can it be? My heart leaps, wanting to believe.
The pure light of our Creator, who came and died to set us free.

Darkness assaults me, the will of it’s master.
Doubt fills my mind, it’s so hard to believe.

But a spark of hope ignites, I ask others in the shadow about the light.
They laugh me to scorn. Depression, my heart turns to stone.

Help me! Help me!

Help me find the way, I am blind.
Lead me to the path that leads to the light.
Every way I go leads to the abyss.
Those around me say the light doesn’t exist.

Then I hear the call, I start to turn.
Darkness tries to stop me but I throw off it’s chains,
There before me is the light, the one they call the Christ.
Love is in his eyes, tears fill mine.

I am the path that leads life, follow me to my kingdom of light.
The path is hard, it’s easy to stray. Jesus Christ is the only way.
