To God I Cry
I cry out does anyone hear me
I long to be free
From these burdens no matter how much I pray
They seem to stay
God have you forgotten me
Will you ever hear my plea
I feel so alone
Not even a place to call home
So many tears I've cried
So many people have lied
I am broken in spirit and in heart
From your word I do not part
The road is getting long
Not sure I have the strength to carry on
I try to not lose my trust
For trust in you I must
Just a sign or word from you
To let me know your promises are true
As I lay awake at night
You are just quiet
I know not which way to turn
I am asking for your help to learn
Help me I plead
For I need help indeed
Take my hand and show me the way
And I will do as you say
No excuses will be given
I just want to start living
I want my joy back
No more sorrow or lack
I want to dance shout and sing
and tell the world that you gave me everything
Protect the ones I love
And send your angels from above
To place me where you want me
For all the world to see
I give to you my life
And ask you to remove the strife
That through the rejection and pain
The world will see you remain
I know I have failed you
And hurt the ones I love too
I ask you to forgive me
and let me be free
