Save me, Lord.
You're the only one able.
My faith seems to be dying.
My Bible gathers dust.
My list of trespasses grows alarmingly.
My relationships are imploding.
You're all I have left.
When life gets good
I have a habit of ditching You.
I'm sorry, Lord.
Forgive me.
Even though I deserve nothing from You.
From the depths I cry out to You, O Lord.
Please save me!
Take me from this life
and show me what love is.
Make me face the truth.
If you're testing me,
I beg you to stop.
I can't take it.
I'm weak.
But now when I have You.
You remind me what light is.
You comfort my decaying heart
in my time of need.
Wverything is possible when I have you.
Please come back to me.
