Outside a rundown doorway
Sits a child alone in the dark
The steps cracked and cold from the night wind
Just like this poor child's heart.
The world has all forsaken him
His head hangs low with shame
Deep despair once overtook him
The drugs no longer dull the pain
He has a home and family
But life is just way too hard
Feeling like a blacksheep among them
He’s been dealt a bitter card.
With nowhere to turn and hopeless
He cradles his head and cries
Thinking no one else can help him
Or dry the tears in his eyes.
His body is weak from weeping
His mind is clouded and gray
With no strength left, he falls to his knees
And that's when he begins to pray
Oh God I just can not do this
I can't live in this world anymore
My life is controlled my this shadow
Is that you, knocking on the door?
My child I can offer you much,
But a life without pain, I don't promise
If you call upon my Son Jesus
I promise your life will be changed.
I love you so much my dear child
That I gave my own flesh and blood
So you could live freely forever
Abiding in my perfect love.
The child at that moment surrendered
His life so tattered and torn
To Jesus our precious Redeemer
Praise God He's now been reborn.
Outside a rundown doorway
Sits a child no longer in the dark
His life is now full of SONshine
Cause Jesus is alive in his heart.
