Fortress

I was afraid to let anybody in,

So I took my flaws,

And I built a wall.

I tried so hard,

But I couldn't find the purpose,

For why I created this fortress.

I blocked You out,

I sealed myself in, 

Where do I begin?

I was like an architect,

But I was building without a plan,

And now I'm trapped just like I began.

I need You to break down the walls of this fortress,

Because I don't need it anymore.

I need You to help me through all of this,

Because I know that I was wrong.

I need You.

I watch the walls fall away,

You set me free,

You were always there for me.

Now I feel everything changing,

I know that You have repaired this heart,

Finally I can get a chance to restart.

No longer am I trapped inside my fortress,

The torture that I made,

No matter what, You always forgave.

I can finally forget the things that I've done,

I realize that You're Grace covers all,

And You have the power to break down these walls.
