Here's another one all. It's called "Thirteen Years" because I had strayed from the Lord thirteen years prior to a year ago...


I was infatuated by the darkness,
I made my home there.
Thirteen years, I was like Satan incarnate.
I was suffocating, gasping for air.

Do you feel safe in the light?
Exposed, for all to see?
Hidden out in plain sight,
You want to flee, no more privacy.

It’s been thirteen years,
I didn’t want this fight.
No, I couldn’t help the tears.
For so long it was flight, not sight.

Now, with your help, Lord…
I am unbreakable...unstoppable.
It’s time for my breakthrough, Lord.
It’s going to be astronomical.

No more catharsis.
Not through the darkness.
No more hatred, only love.
Please send me yours from up above.

It's been a ride,
But now I know
You're on my side
Now I have hope.
