You told me as the leaves grew
It was the start of something new
Eager starry eyes full of dreams
The world was waiting, it seems
Summer blessings were mine
This was my time to shine
In hope, I waited for redemption
But now I want a conversation
I am a child waiting after school
Did you forget me? I am a fool
By your Hands, I am humbled
In the dark for You, I stumbled
As it gets cold faster, I crawl
Just like leaves, my dreams fall
In the dark valley I find company
Fellow sojourners who carry me
It breaks them when I faint
Their words say rejoice in pain
But I won’t. I am tired of it all
When will You answer my call?
Does life really have any worth?
It ends suddenly even at birth
But I won’t stop till the end
Because I see You as my friend
This hour, my hope begins to falter
I have walked too long in winter
My horizon is covered in gray skies
The change is slowly this heart dies
I wonder is that what You want?
The old me completely gone?
Just have mercy on me I pray
A hope that after night comes day
After death that Winter shall bring
A whole new me grows in Spring
Is that when You will come for me?
I am waiting, waiting to see.
