You're standing on the edge of a desert
On one side of you there's civilization
Hotels restaurants etc
And on the other side nothing but miles of desert
Getting lost in it would surely lead to death
You're fed up with your sinful life
And you know that walking into the desert
Would mean committing suicide
But you don't want to go back to your old life
You're desperate for change
And if it's God's will
You won't die
But then
It could be his will
That you go this way
Obviously it's not God's will for anyone to due
Though it is God's will for all to live
Die and face judgement
That said you know that walking into the desert
Would mean you'd be putting your trust in God
He would either save you
Or you would die
If it was God's will for you to live
You would be saved
If he had a purpose and reason
For you to carry on living
You would be saved
But if not
Then he would take you home
Right now I feel like
Walking into the desert
Saying God if it be your will
For me to go this way
Then I shall disappear here
And never again will I offend you
For you will take me home
Yet if it's your will for me to live
Even though I am this way
Given over and lost in sin
Then you will save me
Then you have a purpose for my life
If I could I would walk into the desert
Not to test God
But because it would mean
I either meet my demise
And get to go home
Freed from these chains
And made whole
It would be like walking to God
Surely if I get lost in the desert
I would succumb to heat and hunger and thirst
I would eventually give up the ghost
And it would all be over
And if it wasn't for my mom
And my family
I would walk out into the desert
I would walk to God
What do I do and where do I go
When back at home
My demons rap on my door
Yet in the desert I am without
That which causes me to sin
It's just me and God
I would either die and rest in peace
Or be rescued and return back to my life
Either way I would be liberated
Oh desert where are you
I want to walk into you
I want to get lost in you
I want to walk to God
And hear what he has to say
On one side of you there's civilization
Hotels restaurants etc
And on the other side nothing but miles of desert
Getting lost in it would surely lead to death
You're fed up with your sinful life
And you know that walking into the desert
