Everything was bleak and gloomy and cold and full of fear

Fighting dark forces driving thoughts that I don’t belong here

Struggling with if my departure will help those I hold dear

Piercing my soul breaking inside I shed rivers of tears

Everything was crushing searching for one sliver of light

Struggling to find even a glimmer that would end this plight

Giving every single ounce of strength to press on and fight

Crying desperately dropping to my knees in the night

Everything became silent with a hushed awe in the air

Pulsating between calm and wonder all has become clear

Invading emotions of gentle love lay my heart bare

Rushing like a mighty wind the Son of God has come near

Everything changed as He drove all the vile darkness away

Breathing vibrant life into a hopeless heart full of grey

Remolding what was broken like a potter to the clay

Helping me to dance like it was spring on a winter's day
