The Pit

Theres this place 

you don’t want to go

 

thats lacking everything

it is dull

________________________________

It sits in the dark all by its self

and has never come out

 

where nothing is good

its in bad health

_________________________________

Just a hint of light 

to give it some hope

 

but it’s not there

it’s to hard to fight

___________________________________

it’s like I am stuck

inside a deep dark hole trying to climb my way out

 

but when i start to get close 

I get struck

____________________________________

Struck down back into my pit

right where i started 

 

no way to get out

maybe ill rest for a bit

_____________________________________

Exhausted and beat 

there is no hope 

 

but something in my head

says get back on your feet

______________________________________

As i stand up I feel stronger 

Theres something inside

 

that tells me it’s only

for a while longer

______________________________________

Trust in Me

I’lll take it from here

 

I've been here all along

its time to be set free

 

All I need you to do

is believe 

 

and My promise to you

is that I’ll get you through

 

_____________________________________

Get yourself up you’re no longer alone

you never actually were

 

believe when I tell you 

you are an ere to my throne

______________________________________

you are worthy of it all 

this you will overcome

 

I promise with Me

you will get up that wall

_______________________________________

So I give my all and start to climb

and it becomes easier

 

i am making it

this is my time

_______________________________________

i enter into the light

and out of the pit

 

and the voice in my head says

you won this fight

_______________________________________

and every battle you enter

no matter the size

 

you have a father

a doctor, a mentor

_______________________________________

Inside my soul theres this place

full of joy, peace and glory

 

I am a daughter of the Father

this i will embrace

 

 

 

 

 

 

my pit is now covered 

in flowers and vines 

 

its beauty is full

it has fully recovered

___________________________________

Little do you know that pit was me

no longer a devastation

 

For my Father in heaven

has set me free
