Mired down in struggle
Seeking to get free
Thoughts of life engrossing
This vision that I see

Caught within this boundary
Know that I'll break through
Captured by emotions
My strength will now renew

Need this time alone now
To seek a special place
With every web that's woven
I'll break free to embrace

What is in my heart now
I know that I must show
The path that I will follow
Becomes the road I know

Straight ahead I'm looking
Reaching for the star
Knowing that I'll touch it
This dream is not that far

Break these ties that bind me
Let my heart resume
Love becomes the bounty
That brings me peaceful bloom.

I visited the depths of despair
and couldn't seem to find my way out.
I cried out in the darkness and
His Hand reached down and brought
me forth "out of the miry clay"
He set my feet upon a Rock and
nothing has ever been the same.
I was as a lowly sparrow alone
upon the roof top and then
a gentle voice reminded me,
that He sees the sparrow that falls.
So, when you think you are alone
and despair wants to engulf you...
reach out..He's waiting right beside you
all you have to do is ASK.
