Depression
1/15/93
When one loses something or someone
A great loss is felt
Deep down in the heart and soul
They cry for help
Whether it to be set free or have one come
to their aid
Nothing can help, not even crying,
no sound can be made.
The heart and soul they do weep
The secrets of the heart, they do keep.
Set me free, oh pain, your grip is so tight
Will my heart and soul ever feel light ?
Where oh where can freedom be?
What will ever become of me ?
Can’t you see the hurt, can’t you feel my pain?
My tears, I have cried enough to cause the rain.
My tears, I have cried enough to cause the rain.
When rain pours, then the flood does come.
Is there a lifeboat to reach and save me?
Is there anyone?
Is there a lifeboat to reach and save me?
Is there anyone?
Am I drowning? Am I dying?
Little by little I feel the squeeze of death.
It tries to rob me of my breath.
Oh, soul, Oh, heart, You must survive!
You can’t go on with pain and grief
You must reach out for life.
There is a lifeline it is Jesus Christ.
Throw me a line O Lord, Cause me
to live and rejoice in Thee again.
I don’t want to be a problem
to anyone anymore.
It seems all I do is cause grief
and pain to all around me.
What to do to end it all for them and me?
Despair is my only company.
Despair is my only company.
Is there hope? Is their light ?
Or will death rob me in the night ?
I feel so alone and lost inside
No one can help me, take me and hide.
Hide me from my feelings, I can’t stand the pain.
Let me climb inside a place of safety,
Where no one will hurt me, where I can’t hurt
Where no one will hurt me, where I can’t hurt
those I love.
Set me free, Set me free
Oh pain, Oh grief set me free
Only hope can clear my mind,
Only the Blood of Jesus, I can find.
Only the Blood of Jesus, I can find.
No one person can make me happy,
No amount of money can set me free
For inside I am locked up, but,
Only one holds the key.
Let me be free Jesus, Set me free.
There is blessed hope, one day I will find
True joy and peace will invade my mind.
Then I shall praise Him and rejoice with my voice
I must choose now, You are my choice.
