I wander alone, not a soul by my side

The air is still and cold

The sun peaks through the trees in rays

While the thoughts inside my mind unfold

I know not where I’m going

I dare not think of where I’ve been

My sins run through my mind in waves

And I struggle - a major war within

This dark pit looms in front of me

I look down, nervous - I take a step back

“Please help me…” a voice inside my mind cries

I can’t do this alone - I’m under attack

I fall to my knees in desperation

But will He listen when I’ve waited so long?

My mind opens and pours out every deceit

And I suddenly realise how I was so wrong

Peace and comfort have flooded my mind

Overwhelming relief for a heavy burden gone

The darkness will some day come back I am sure

But I am not afraid - I no longer wander alone
