In my loneliness, I know I'm not alone
The darkness of this space in my thoughts
I think of my life, my state of being
My presence, my pain, to my purpose
Your goodness is beyond my tears, my fears
A presence brings such comfort to my soul
I hear those out in fields of hope crying, sighing
Some locked away, thrown into the innermost
Will I forget when no one I had to call
There's your presence so near, so dear
You kept my sanity to not slip away
The pit like this prison is a holding place
You prepare a table before me
The darkness now flees at the light
What was meant for my hurt, you turned
The light that bathes me, says you're mine
A mother's forsaken, a world so taken
I will be neglected, such love I'm infected
I'll never know what love is, like you
Every step I take, every move I make
I look at your blood soaked foot prints
Impressed in the sands of time
Reminders of a death, for a debt
I placed my feet, and I'm not alone
One thing I know for sure
No one here can love me more
An endless, selfless love I know
Is all I need while here below
Then gladly share wherever I go
