Constant sin

The trap I’m in

Un-forgiven in my mind

The way is dark

I feel no remorse

My sin is moving in

The way out seems barred

Barred by my own self serving heart

I feel as if God isn’t there

Like he is as distant as the sun

The sun is setting in my life

The warmth of love from God is gone

I feel only shame

My sin has bound me

I feel locked in

Constant sin

This web I’m in

I am stuck within this maze

My soul can’t seem to find its way out

I look up

Through the haze

I search for someone there to help

Cause I cannot help myself

But no one’s there

I’ve searched in vain

For some help to guide me out

And lead me from this shroud of doubt

I look down

And walk ahead

And find the bodies of the dead

Who never made it out again

I cry out

For God to save

My wretched soul that wallows in

This mud and dirt that is my sin

Will help come

Will God save me

From this maze of sin I’ve made

The only way out

Is through the gates my heart has made

I must break through

I realize now that only through

The Son can my sinful bonds be broken

God give me strength to rely on you

Only by you and your grace will

My soul be saved

God save me

I am yours!
