If not for
you my heart
would weep
If not for
you,
Alone I cry
A dramatic
pause in
life, to
wonder why,
Empty
inside.
Drifting on
an unknown
sea,
Swept on the
tide
Left, shall
I die
As the world
rushes by.
Yet, is that
a tiny
sparkle out
there I see
Maybe
shining down
for me,
A glow
within my
sight
One
remaining
mystery
Hidden
beyond
This deepest
night
Where there
is no light.
Oh how much
I need to
find
A gentleness
kind,
Reaching
inside
Melting my
heart,
Someone
there
Somewhere to
guide
Stretching
out wide
With arms
filled with
love
Crucified,
To envelop
my heart
A fragrance
divine
To be truly
mine.
Father take
it all
The mask of
me that
ought to
die,
Then put
Your life
within
Your heart
be mine
Take me into
Yourself
Forever
sublime.

Here I was
worrying
about my
journey,
while God
was
helping me
all the way,
making me
realize that
I am
very weak;
my courage
can only be
from Him,
but,
oh, the
peace that
floods my
soul...because
I know
that he
never
faileth. I
would not,
if I could,
turn
back now,
because I
believe that
God is going
to
reveal
Himself in a
wonderful
way.

God took the
worst thing
that man
could
do to his
Son, and
transformed
it into
the best
thing he
could do for
man.
